MEDIUM SCALE AND LARGE SCALESECTOR
Large scale and Medium scale industries are not only status of industrial
civilization of the district, it flourishes the survival and growth of small scale industries
through ancillarisation and downstream development.
Late Biju Pattanaik, the first young industrialist of Orissa and latter on the then
Chief Minister of Orissa had a prime thought for state’s industrialisation. Choudwar of
Cuttack district was his ideal location for industrial growth with setting up Kalinga Tubes
Ltd, Orissa Textile Mills Ltd, Titagarha Papper Mill Ltd, IDC Tile factory Ltd. With the
prime inspiration of Choudwar industrial growth, a medium scale glass industry called
Shree Durga Glass came at Baranga at a distance of 20 kms from Cuttack town and
similarly private sector medium scale industry for manufacture of M.S Rods, flats and
Textile Mill for manufacture of dhotis and sarees came up at Nayabazar of Cuttack town
in the name and style of Orissa Textile and Steels Ltd. The primitive era of
industrialisation necessitated the need of good entrepreneurs and engineers. Latter on the
educated young persons with venturing expedition dared to start their own small scale
industries, what we found its existence and growth in different corners of the State.

EVOLUTION AND GROWTH OF INDUSTRIAL ESTAT ES
FOR DEVELOPMENT OF INDUSTRIAL CULTURE:
The growing trend of industrialisation is correlated with growth of industrial
culture. From the primitive era of black smithy works on producing cast steels for
agricultural tools and hand weapons, now the steel plants have come up to produce
sophisticated high speed steels to produce air craft missiles. The village black smithy
works have now become city steel plants with growth of cultured industrial civilisation
of the country. Orissa was an agricultural dominated State for which excepting silver
filigree handicrafts of Cuttack, its industrial culture was not aggressive like other States
of the country as given below:
Foundry products

: Howrah of West Bengal,
Agra of Uttar Pradesh,
Coimbatore of Tamilnadu,
Ballabhagarha of Haryana.

In order to generate the industrial culture in the minds of the people of Orissa and
keeping in view the rural indusrialisation of the State with utilisation of available local
resources, Government of Orissa launched Panchayat Samiti Industries programme
during 1962-63. This PSI programme was unique in the country. Latter on Government
of India devised a similar programme called Rural Industries Projects through out the
country with construction of rural industrial estates at Panchayat samiti and Gram
Panchayat headquarters. The undivided Cuttack district availed this opportunity of RIP
programme with construction RIP projects at Jajpur.
The PSI programme was successfully implemented at the then Cuttack district
with establishment of Panchayat Industries at Gram panchyat and Panchayat Samiti
headquarters of Jajpur, Narsinghpur, Athagarha, salipur, Bahugram, Chhatia and
Panikoili. The Panchayat Samiti Industries were industrial cooperatives having share
investment by Government, Grampanchayat, Panchayat Samiti and local people. This
8
programme planted the seeds of industrial culture in the minds of people of Orissa for
State’s Industrialisation as people could be able to know, What is an Industry? How to
set up and how to manage it ? These industries were protos of Industrial civilisation in the
State. In undivided Cuttack District, 18 nos PSI units were set up comprising of
carpentry, black smithy, saw mill, umbrella assembling, bucket mfg .Sunamukhi
umbrella of Panikoili and Biraja oil mill of Jajpur were famous in the State for its good
quality umbrella and pure mustard oil. In the meantime forty years have been elapsed on
implementation of PSI and RIP programme, most of the units have seized production
due to the end of their industrial life span, but these programme have given mushroom
growth of a number of small scale industries throughout the State.
In order to facilitate the growth of small scale industries through providing need
based infrastructure like land, water, power, finance, market support, raw material
availability etc, Government have set up industrial estates through out the State. The
industrial estates developed a new concept of civilised industrial culture for solving the
common problems of industrial units through forming industries associations and
federations.
Cuttack district is having 9 nos of Industrial estates and 658 nos of units have been
set up as detailed given below.
