“As the world is going through recession, it will be in the favour of the Country and Jharkhand as well, that more and more investors come to us and invest here. We have decided to relax the laws so that investors are lured to come here to our state. For this, I seek cooperation from the opposition also so that we can succeed in generating more and more employment here in the State,” said CM.
