The Union Minister for Communication and IT, Mr A. Raja, will inaugurate the centre, which functions under the Union Ministry of Textiles, in the presence of Mr A. Sakthivel, Chairman of the Technical Sub-Committee of ATDC, and Collector Mr Anil Meshram. Accompanied by Mr C.S.

The worth of the imported sewing machinery ranges between Rs 40,000 and Rs 2.5 lakh.

They would be equipped to take up jobs in both woven and knitwear units. The ATDC would also offer programmes of three months to one year duration to provide training in production supervision, quality control, pattern making and computer aided designing. Mr Sridhar said the centre would gain more prominence in the event of the special economic zone coming up in the district. More Stories on : Textiles | Rural Development | Tamil Nadu
