 The project would comprise a belt of at least 5.5 lakh sq. kms and would run through seven states including Punjab, Haryana, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand, and West Bengal. These are some of the most densely populated regions in the world and stock about 40% of India’s population. 
 
The Corridor will cover the cities of Amritsar, Jalandhar, Ludhiana, Ambala, Saharanpur, Delhi, Roorkee, Moradabad, Allahabad, Varanasi, Patna, Bareilly, Lucknow, Aligarh, Kanpur, Hazaribagh, Asansol, Durgapur, Dhanbad and Kolkata. These regions need a major push for industrialization and job-creation and the ADKIC will act as an initiator for this growth.
ADKIC is proposed to be developed in a set of 150-200 kms on either side of Eastern Dedicated Freight Corridor. The first phase would involve setting up of integrated manufacturing clusters of 10 square kms in each of the states. The manufacturing clusters will be identified by the state governments.

The industrial corridor is a promising investment opportunity that will bring in world class technology, improve economies of scale, attract more FDI, ensure better connectivity and lead to low logistics cost and low inventory.

In addition to this, the project will also enable smooth supply chain integration and enhance export value. This can work towards potentially strengthening trade and economic ties and give a big boost to manufacturing and real estate sectors.
