Himachal CM wooing investments, assures support to business giants

Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu revealed that several renowned business conglomerates have expressed keen interest in investing in the state. He assured that the government would extend full logistical support to these enterprises. This announcement came following a meeting with a delegation from the Baddi-Barotiwala-Nalagarh Industrial Association (BBNIA), led by President Rajiv Aggarwal and General Secretary YS Guleria, who presented a donation of Rs 20.2 million to the Chief Minister's 'Aapda Rahat Kosh' fund.

Expressing gratitude for this generous contribution, Chief Minister Sukhu acknowledged the state government's proactive efforts in facilitating entrepreneurs and attracting new investments. He emphasised the government's dedication to enhancing industrial infrastructure, focusing on upgrading road and rail connectivity. The Chief Minister revealed ongoing discussions with the Union Government to expedite the establishment of rail connectivity in the industrial belt.
