A two-day buyer-seller meet was also organised between J and K vendors and UAE buyers.

The real estate, infrastructure, tourism, healthcare, manpower, and employment sectors of J and K have piqued the interest of investors.

According to J&K Lt Governor Manoj Sinha, investment proposals worth Rs 17,000 crore were signed between the J and K government and well-known corporate companies. The initiatives, he said, are vital to accelerating the pace of economic and social change, thereby improving the lives of the ordinary man in J and K. At the show, the J and K government struck eight agreements with international investors.
