Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav has underscored his state’s readiness for global investment by introducing policy reforms during a meeting with the Indian diaspora in Barcelona.
The Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh, Mohan Yadav, has extended an invitation to the global Indian community to engage in the state’s developmental journey, emphasizing a transformational shift in Madhya Pradesh towards becoming a robust investment hub. Addressing a gathering of the Indian diaspora and Friends of Madhya Pradesh in Barcelona on July 19, Yadav proclaimed the state as a vibrant platform ready for international investment.
Highlighting the state’s proactive approach, Yadav unveiled several pro-investment initiatives, including an enticing offer for institutions looking to establish medical colleges. The state is providing 25 acres of land for just $0.01 (INR 1) as part of its effort to expand the number of medical colleges from 37 to 50 within the next two years. This initiative is aimed at bolstering educational infrastructure and enhancing healthcare facilities across the state.
In a bid to boost tourism, the Madhya Pradesh government is providing significant subsidies for hotel projects. Investments up to $12 million in hotel ventures could receive subsidies as high as $3.6 million, supporting broader objectives to develop the state’s hospitality sector and position it as a world-class destination.
Yadav also emphasized Madhya Pradesh’s advancements in administrative digitization, highlighting a recent instance where online land allocation was successfully executed for a London-based entrepreneur, serving as a testament to the state’s investor-friendly environment.
During his address, Yadav touched on the deep cultural connections shared by Indians globally. He described overseas Indians as custodians of Indian culture who maintain traditions worldwide with grace and dignity, likening them to “sugar in milk.” He acknowledged the elevated status of Indians abroad under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership.
Concluding his remarks, Yadav made a heartfelt appeal to the diaspora to actively participate in the state’s development. “Madhya Pradesh is the heart of India, where every effort and connection is truly welcomed,” he assured, stating that the government is committed to not only listening to but also acting on every suggestion.
According to New India Abroad, these initiatives and sentiments underline Madhya Pradesh’s commitment to forging strong, cooperative ties with the global Indian community, paving the way for enhanced economic and cultural collaboration.
