The state government is currently focussing on sectors like agri-business, food processing, automotive, defence and IT-ITES, it said at the ‘Chhattisgarh Investment Summit’ organised during the ‘Make In India Week’ here.
“Chhattisgarh is being increasingly recognised as a leading brand for attracting investments in the country,” Chief Minister Raman Singh said.
He announced that ‘Naya Raipur’ would be the flag-bearer of ‘resurgent Chattisgarh’.
“It (Naya Raipur) will reflect the rich heritage and natural beauty of the state while marching ahead to become India’s best planned smart city,” he said.
The CM also unveiled the Chattisgarh State Investor Guide on the occasion.
During his address, Commerce Minister Amar Agarwal said Chhattisgarh is a power surplus state which is rich in natural and mineral resources and it provides industrial land with best fiscal incentives for setting up business.
The state is now focussing on non-core sectors such as agri-business and food processing, automotive, defence, IT-ITES and others.
“It is providing new opportunities to MSMEs to prosper as well as facilitating an enabling ecosystem for larger industries,” he said.
