A major industrial corridor being developed in Andhra Pradesh is the:

Vizag-Chennai Industrial Corridor
Hyderabad-Vijayawada Industrial Corridor
Bengaluru-Amaravati Industrial Corridor
Kakinada-Nellore Industrial Corridor

The correct answer is: a) Vizag-Chennai Industrial Corridor.

The Vizag-Chennai Industrial Corridor is a major industrial corridor being developed in Andhra Pradesh. It is a 1,000-km-long corridor that will connect the cities of Visakhapatnam and Chennai. The corridor is expected to attract investments of over Rs. 1 lakh crore and create over 10 lakh jobs.

The corridor will be developed in three phases. The first phase will cover the stretch from Visakhapatnam to Vijayawada. The second phase will cover the stretch from Vijayawada to Guntur. The third phase will cover the stretch from Guntur to Chennai.

The corridor will be developed on a public-private partnership basis. The government will provide land and infrastructure, while the private sector will invest in the development of industries.

The corridor is expected to boost the economic development of Andhra Pradesh. It will also help to improve the connectivity between the two cities.

The other options are incorrect because:

  • Option b) Hyderabad-Vijayawada Industrial Corridor is already operational.
  • Option c) Bengaluru-Amaravati Industrial Corridor is still in the planning stage.
  • Option d) Kakinada-Nellore Industrial Corridor is a minor industrial corridor.
