New Delhi : In a significant step towards developing Delhi as a major centre for the media and entertainment industry, a key Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed between Delhi Tourism and Transportation Development Corporation Limited and Prasar Bharati at Bharat Mandapam during the International Film Festival of Delhi (IFFD) on Friday.
On the occasion, Tourism Minister Shri Kapil Mishra stated that under the leadership of Hon’ble Chief Minister Smt. Rekha Gupta, Delhi will leverage its vast talent pool, technical expertise and creative energy to emerge as a preferred destination for investors, producers and creative professionals from India and across the globe.
Under this agreement, Delhi will be developed as a state-of-the-art integrated film, television and media hub. The project will bring together all modern dimensions of media and digital content creation—including film, television, animation, visual effects, gaming and comics (AVGC), on a single platform.
Extending her best wishes, Hon’ble Chief Minister Smt. Rekha Gupta stated that this initiative will prove to be a milestone in establishing Delhi as a global media and entertainment hub, while advancing the vision of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi’s ‘Make in India’ and strengthening the creative economy.
The project will not only develop modern studios, post-production facilities and AVGC hubs, but will also create a robust ecosystem for skill development, training and innovation. It is expected to generate new employment opportunities for the youth and accelerate the growth of Delhi’s creative economy.
For effective implementation of the project, a joint coordination committee comprising representatives from both institutions will be constituted to oversee planning, financing and execution.
