According to the draft layout, industrial units will occupy 55 per cent of the 100-acre park, while 3 per cent of the land is reserved for residential use, 4 per cent for institutional purposes, 2 per cent for a transport hub, and another 4 per cent for utilities and amenities. Significantly, 11 per cent of the area will be dedicated to greenery and fruit plantations, including green belts and buffer zones to reduce pollution and preserve local biodiversity.
