Ahmedabad : As part of a Rs.10 million corporate social responsibility (CSR) project, India’s largest private company, Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance Industries Ltd (RIL), has built a market and created a garden for commercial plants in a Gujarat village.
The market, set up by Reliance as part of a project to develop the village Moti Khavdi in the state’s Jamnagar district, will accommodate shops for eatables, vegetables, spices, clothes and cutlery and shoes.
The shops will provide 46 hawkers a permanent place to sell their goods.
A RIL spokesman said the project would give the village, some 350 km from here, a new look.
Reliance group company Reliance Petroleum is setting up a 29-million-tonne per annum high-complexity petroleum refinery in the Jamnagar special economic zone. Moti Khavdi village is adjacent to the plant site.
