Need To Set Up A Public Sector Cashew Nut Processing Industry At Contai, Purba ... on 12 December, 2006
an> Title: Need to set up a public sector cashew nut processing industry at Contai, Purba Medinipur, West Bengal.
SHRI PRASANTA PRADHAN (CONTAI): The Caju-nut is very growing cultivation to the peasants of India, specially at Sea-Shore area. In my constituency, Contui, Purbamedinipur, West Bengal huge amount of Caju-nut had been produced by the cultivators. But there are three or four small industries. Due to the insufficient processing in the Caju-industry the cultivator fell in great distress and sometime they get very small remuneration for, their products. Therefore the public sector industry be very necessary for the cultivators.
I draw the attention of the Small-Scale Industries Department and Ministry, so that a proper Cazu-factory may be installed.
