Chief Minister Hemant Soren today attended the "Srujan" Startup Conclave organized by the Federation of Jharkhand Chamber of Commerce and Industries in the Aryabhatta Auditorium of Ranchi University Campus as the Chief Guest. On this occasion, he said that the government has a positive attitude towards all the industries in the state and the new industries that are going to come up. There should be maximum investment in the state. More and more employment opportunities should be created. Our government will fully support the industries and those setting up the industries.
The Chief Minister told the Jharkhand Chambers that there are many such industries in Jharkhand which are years old. Generation after generation of entrepreneurs are doing business here. All of them have been seeing the changing form of Jharkhand. They are well aware of the economic, social and geographical conditions here. Others cannot understand this state as well as they can. In such a situation, our aim is to develop the state in all aspects together with you.
The Chief Minister said that the state government has made a startup policy. However, the startups in this state are a little behind in the promotion they should have received. But, the government will soon take concrete steps to strengthen and promote startups. The government will move forward with the idea that youth should get employment through startups and also provide employment to others.
The Chief Minister said that after independence, the policy makers of the country understood the importance of this state. As a result, many big industries were established in our state. Many industrial groups like Tata and Birla set up their industries. Most of the activities of Coal India are being conducted in this state. The country's first fertilizer industry, mining institute and 'Heavy Engineering Corporation Limited' (HEC), famous as the mother of the industry, are also established in our state. But, as time progressed and the circumstances became such that many industries here were closed. The industries which were supposed to expand, kept shrinking. Due to this, people also became unemployed. But, our government wants to lay such a foundation for industries, whose benefits can be availed by people generation after generation. Whatever suggestion Jharkhand Chambers will have in this, it will be implemented positively and will give full cooperation.
On this occasion, Rajya Sabha MP Mahua Maji, MLA Rameshwar Oraon, former Rajya Sabha MP Mahesh Poddar, Additional Chief Secretary to the Chief Minister Avinash Kumar, Secretary of Information Technology and e-Governance Department Vipra Bhal, President of Federation of Jharkhand Chamber of Commerce and Industries Kishore Mantri, former President Vinay Agarwal, Vice President Aditya Malhotra, Secretary Paresh Gatani and other members were present.
