Resurgent Rajasthan Summit was recently hosted by the Government of Rajasthan in association with Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), inaugurated by Union Minister Arun Jaitley.
In his inaugural address, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said:
Rajasthan is a land of history. Its cities, villages literally symbolise that history.
One of the most important aspects of its history has been the ability of its people of Marawar region who specialise not only in earning but multiplying money.
If you go to any part of India or outside you will find thousands of those who migrated out of Rajasthan and they art of doing business.
This investor summit shows that investments are flowing in Rajasthan and that the state has found its core areas.
India, in the last few months has been following a policy with renewed vigour of attracting investments into the country.
Public investment has significantly increased and so has FDI increased considerably, private sector investment is also slowly picking up.
We have eased all the rules as far as investment is concerned.
I am sure Rajasthan as an extremely progressive state, is certainly going to gain from this new investment chapter that India is writing.
Rajasthan State Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje addressed the gathering and gave a snapshot of what the Government had been doing along with plans for the future.
It is a historical day for Rajasthan. For the development of the state I need support of all. With investments flowing in there will be ample opportunities for growth. When states will become strong India too will become strong.
A new identity of Rajasthan is being formed. Imran Khan’s efforts at developing apps for educational purpose have earned Rajasthan a good name. Bhamasha Scheme will strengthen the state. The state is land of unending opportunities. Agriculture has contributed a lot towards development of the state. Now from agriculture we will move towards economics of manufacturing. Rajasthan is good state for mining and tourism sectors.
PM Modi has strengthened the institutions and ensured states can prosper well. Rajasthan will be a leading state in developing and supporting MSMEs.
With the support of everyone we will grow. We all will reinvent Rajasthan. Private sector will have to work hand in hand with the state government. Our efforts for development are bearing fruits. Skill development will improve chances of development.
I wholeheartedly thank all the investors who have shown faith on us.
The inauguration ceremony was attended by numerous ministers, foreign dignitaries and business leaders.
Urban Development Minister Venkaiah Naidu said:
All Union Minister have come here to show their solidarity with the initiative of Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje.
The only mantra of Modi Government is development.
Without the support of business leaders success can’t be achieve. Request you all to support the development.
If you want money, employment opportunities and growth you have to give importance to investments.
Four cities from Rajasthan have been nominated for Smart City this is a big achievement.
Our mission is housing for all.
Rajasthan has shown tremendous growth when it comes to Smart City or Mission Clean India.
Government at the centre will always support journey of Rajasthan’s development journey.
