CM Dhami said that this is the sixth roadshow that is being organised in Ahmedabad in the run-up to the Uttarakhand Global Investors Summit. He said that Gujarat is the land of Lord Krishna and great men like Mahatma Gandhi and Sardar Patel. This land has given India a Prime Minister like Narendra Modi who has transformed the country into a powerhouse. Under his leadership, India has created a distinct identity across the globe. Today India’s prestige and status are increasing in the world.
Dhami said that his government is continuously working for the development of industries in Uttarakhand. Keeping in mind the suggestions of people associated with the industry, 30 new policies have been made. Many policies have been further simplified. All the suggestions received during the Uttarakhand Global Investors Summit’s run-up events are being implemented. A single window system has been created to promote investment in the state. It is being made more effective through continuous improvement. Chief minister Dhami stated that it has been 23 years since the formation of Uttarakhand. A special industrial package was given to Uttarakhand by the then Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee. After that, industrial investment in Uttarakhand has increased rapidly.
CM Dhami said that there are immense possibilities for investment in Uttarakhand. A land bank of 6,000 acres has been created in the state. More incentives will be given to those investing in the hilly areas of the state. The natural beauty and better human resources of Uttarakhand are attracting investors to come to the state. He said that work is being done to balance ecology and economy in the state. Uttarakhand is a good destination for investors and businessmen to make it a Karmabhoomi, said the CM.
He added that the state is expanding rapidly with air, rail, road, and ropeway connectivity. So far this year, more than 52 lakh devotees have gone on Chardham Yatra in Uttarakhand. In the Kumaon division, work is being done at a rapid pace under the Manaskhand Mandir Mala Mission.
