The policy also proposes establishing large industrial clusters in every district and launching the \u201cInvest Maharashtra\u201d digital platform to promote investments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said the move is expected to create around five million jobs and includes plans to set up small and medium enterprise (SME) centres in every district. However, Belsare stressed that effective implementation is crucial and that micro and small industries in the supply chain should also benefit from the policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Welcoming the proposal to provide loans to micro and small enterprises, he said the government must ensure that banks and financial institutions make credit easily accessible. He added that establishing a separate commissionerate or dedicated department for micro and small industries would accelerate their growth, increase turnover and strengthen the state\u2019s economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Belsare also suggested the creation of a startup \u201cMahafund\u201d to simplify financial assistance for new entrepreneurs. Such a fund, he said, would encourage startups and generate more employment opportunities across the state.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pimpri : Sandeep Belsare, president of the Pimpri Chinchwad Small Industries Association, welcomed key announcements made in the Maharashtra State<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1348,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[71,56],"class_list":["post-1347","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-pimpri-chinchwad","tag-budget","tag-pcmc"],"magazineBlocksPostFeaturedMedia":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Budget-150x150.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Budget-300x180.jpg","medium_large":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Budget-768x461.jpg","large":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Budget.jpg","1536x1536":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Budget.jpg","2048x2048":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Budget.jpg","colormag-highlighted-post":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Budget-392x272.jpg","colormag-featured-post-medium":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Budget-390x205.jpg","colormag-featured-post-small":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Budget-130x90.jpg","colormag-featured-image":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Budget-800x445.jpg","colormag-default-news":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Budget-150x150.jpg","colormag-featured-image-large":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Budget.jpg"},"magazineBlocksPostAuthor":{"name":"Editor","avatar":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/1d5153bc4b578f38328e6ec4367b899f9035bc845d2933bfe4a714a364de8dbd?s=96&d=mm&r=g"},"magazineBlocksPostCommentsNumber":false,"magazineBlocksPostExcerpt":"Pimpri : Sandeep Belsare, president of the Pimpri Chinchwad Small Industries Association, welcomed key announcements made in the Maharashtra State","magazineBlocksPostCategories":["Pimpri Chinchwad"],"magazineBlocksPostViewCount":53,"magazineBlocksPostReadTime":2,"magazine_blocks_featured_image_url":{"full":["https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Budget.jpg",1000,600,false],"medium":["https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Budget-300x180.jpg",300,180,true],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Budget-150x150.jpg",150,150,true]},"magazine_blocks_author":{"display_name":"Editor","author_link":"https:\/\/theleadernews.in\/?author=3"},"magazine_blocks_comment":0,"magazine_blocks_author_image":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/1d5153bc4b578f38328e6ec4367b899f9035bc845d2933bfe4a714a364de8dbd?s=96&d=mm&r=g","magazine_blocks_category":"<a href=\"#\" class=\"category-link category-link-33\">Pimpri Chinchwad<\/a>","yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
