provision for crafting bespoke policies to enable investments worth more than

years," the chief minister stated.

are all on track." We were able to reach more than Rs one lakh crore in
public expenditure in 2021-22, and this number has only increased in the last
year," he added.

minister, the government is also collaborating closely with research institutes
and fostering a start-up environment.

investments in several sectors, such as hospitality, solar energy production,
industrial infrastructure development, ethanol production, the tea business,
the oil sector, the piped gas supply project, health, horticulture, and human
resource development.
