The scheme provides support for creating infrastructure through Common Facility Centres, procurement of new machineries, creating raw material banks and improved packaging.
Gadkari said there is a need to step up the pace of formation of such clusters as only 93 of the 394 announced so far are actually functional, and a target of 5,000 clusters is achievable if the process is fastened.
