In Short : In an effort to encourage industrial investment in Chhattisgarh, Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai has embarked on his first international journey since taking office, a 10-day official tour of South Korea and Japan. As part of the state’s recently announced industrial policy, this tour aims to capitalize on foreign interest in the main growth industries of electronics, cars, and food processing.
Momentum for Investments Supported by the Industrial Policy Movement
Since the new industrial policy was introduced in November, Chhattisgarh has received ₹6.5 trillion in proposals. The state is taking the initiative to provide a strong, investor-friendly climate, as seen by the numerous projects that are now under way and others that are in the works.
