Madhya Pradesh Government has geared up for the upcoming Investors’ summit –‘Magnificent MP’ scheduled on October 17 and 18 in Indore.
As many as 600 dignitaries including 124 major industry delegates including Kumar Manglam Birla, Adi Godrej, Tata group directors and others are expected to attend the mega summit. The State government has also extended invitation to Reliance chairman Mukesh Ambani and Anil Ambani chairman of Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group.
Chief Minister Kamal Nath had engaged in preparations of the big summit soon after assuming office as the CM last year in December. His participation in the World Economic Forum meet at Davos was also seen as a part of these preparations. Besides, the CM had several rounds of discussions with the leading corporates in Mumbai during his visit to the commercial capital of the country in last few months. Besides, there are several corporations which already have started investments in MP and also have been invited in the mega summit which seeks to showcase state’s potential in key sectors including – Tourism, Agriculture, Horticulture, Food Processing, IT, Pharmaceuticals and others. “We are also onto new sectors including storage batteries, date centres for IT companies and sectors like renewable energy where we are doing well in last decade or so and wish to take it forward in future,” Chief Secretary SR Mohanty had said. While taking stock of the preparations in Indore on Wednesday, the Chief Secretary Mohanty claimed that the Chief Minister is of the view that a single policy can’t satiate the needs of different sectors so separate policies have been formulated for each sector and these policies would be unveiled at the summit.
He also added that the state government instead of focussing on the outcomes of the previous summits is focussing on the present summit. We don’t wish to drag the event unnecessarily so the event would be of one –day as most major industry delegates normally return in a single day, said the senior officer.
