Chhattisgarh has witnessed a renewed surge in investor interest, with companies pledging Rs 6,321.25 crore for industrial projects and Rs 505 crore for tourism initiatives during the Investor Connect event on 25 November.

The state government anticipates these investments will generate employment for over 3,000 people in the coming years. The event, attended by Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai, drew participation from major players across steel, manufacturing, waste-to-energy, hospitality, and energy sectors. Highlighting Chhattisgarh as one of India’s most reliable and fast-growing business destinations, CM emphasised the state’s advantages, including energy surplus, access to a rich mineral belt, and a skilled workforce. He underscored the government’s efficient single-window approval system, offering faster and more transparent permissions.

The CM also pointed to the state’s mineral reserves—coal, iron ore, bauxite, tin, and lithium, as a strong foundation for industrial expansion. Earlier, commitments totaling Rs 3.5 lakh crore were announced at the state’s energy summit, with project execution already underway, signaling sustained momentum in industrial and energy development.
