Sai noted that just as Gujarat continues to drive the Indian and global economy, Chhattisgarh is advancing rapidly on its own path of growth. \u201cIf Gujarat has enterprise, Chhattisgarh has energy, minerals, skilled manpower, and an investor-friendly industrial policy \u2014 a combination that is no less than a blessing for investors,\u201d he remarked.<\/p>\n
Highlighting the state\u2019s progressive reforms, the Chief Minister shared that over the past 22 months, the government has implemented more than 350 reforms to make the establishment of industries smoother and faster.

To date, Chhattisgarh has received investment proposals exceeding \u20b97.5 lakh crore.<\/p>\n
Sai also underlined the state\u2019s strong position in the energy sector, noting that Chhattisgarh ranks second nationally in coal production. \u201cAt the recent Energy Summit, we received investment proposals worth \u20b93.5 lakh crore,\u201d he said. The state, he added, holds vast potential in thermal, hydel, solar, and forest-based industries.<\/p>\n
