Chennai, Mar 5 (UNI) Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), Tamil Nadu State Council in its pre-budget proposal to the State Government, today recommended that infrastructure, manufacturing, development, labour reforms and agriculture were some of the thrust areas required for achieving double-digit industrial growth in the State.
In a statement issued here, CII Tamil Nadu Circle Chairman Sanjay Jayavarthanavelu said ''to make Tamil Nadu the 'numero uno' State, more focus on infrastructure development and manufacturing was needed to achieve the industrial growth rate of over ten per cent''.

''CII prescribes a special focus to develop two-tier towns to bring in more investments into the State'', he said adding development of sites and satellite cities in rural areas may be given priority.
