NEW DELHI, July 21 (Xinhua): South Korea and Japan have sought to set up industrial zones in the western state of Rajasthan's town of Neemrana, some 100 kilometres from the national capital, local media has reported.

While South Korea has urged the state government of Rajasthan for an industrial zone in Neemrana, Japan has asked for a second unit in the same area, "The Times of India" newspaper quoted sources as saying on Sunday.

Both the countries are expected to get land in Neemrana, which is fast emerging as a vital industrial hub as it is part of the Delhi-Mumbai industrial corridor, the report said.
