Patil pointed out that in Narasapura at Kolar, final notification has not been issued despite acquiring the land 10 years ago.

"Now, 11,000 acres of land worth Rs 8,000-10,000 crore are available with the government for industrial purposes. The government would adopt a flexible policy to facilitate the availability of plots when specific industries do not arrive," he said.
