shifting a proposed 60 million metric tonnes-per annum refinery and petrochemicals complex project to Vidarbha from coastal Ratnagiri.<\/p><div class=\"trade-content_7\" style=\"margin-left:

stalled due to opposition by local organizations and other reasons.<\/p>\n<p>          In a letter to Thackeray and state industries minister Subhash Desai dated March 12, Gadkari highlighted how the shifting of the project to Vidarbha (eastern Maharashtra) will benefit the state.<\/p>\n<p>          The Union minister also included a request letter he had received from Vidarbha Economic Development Council vice president Pradip Maheshwari on the subject, and asked the CM to consider the points raised by the latter.<\/p><div class=\"trade-content_5\" id=\"trade-1777709694\"><script

and maintenance charges (from the project) would provide long-term income to state-run Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation and Vidarbha Industrial Development Corporation, and would also help unlock the value of land in Butibori, Mihan and other areas in Nagpur.<\/p>\n<p>        With land prices currently in the range of Rs 60 lakh per acre, substantial sums of money will be unlocked due to the sale of these plots as many petrochemicals- and derivative-based industries like paints, tyres, polyester, textiles, etc., would prefer to invest near a large refinery and petrochemical complex (RPC), it said.<\/p>\n<p>        The shifting of RPC to Vidarbha will also provide the right of way (RoW) income to Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation, which is building the Mumbai-Nagpur Expressway, from a crude pipeline, and there will be a manifold increase in toll collection in the range of Rs 3,500-4000 crore due to the setting up of MSMEs nearby, the letter said.<\/p>\n<p>        The letter informed that current electricity generation in Vidarbha is approximately 18,000 MW, but usage stands at 3,500 MW, with the balance going to Pune, Mumbai and Aurangabad regions.<\/p>\n<p>        This causes transmission losses of 15-22 per cent, while the increase in local power consumption due to RPC and allied MSMEs will bring about reduction in losses by as much as Rs 3,000 crore, the letter said.<\/p>\n<p>         The project would increase the state GST collections due to rise in consumption of steel, cement and polyester-based textiles, earning approximately Rs 4,000 crore to Maharashtra, the VECD letter said.<\/p><div class=\"trade-content-10\" id=\"trade-1840244706\"><script async

this scale would create five lakh jobs in Vidarbha, bringing the &#8220;backward region&#8221;  on par with industrial areas like Pune and Aurangabad, it said.<\/p>\n<p>         These calculations which show savings of Rs 12,000-15,000 crore annually by the state are based on detailed studies, the letter said.<\/p>\n<p>        Gadkari had, on February 14, written to Union Petroleum Minister
