Madhya Pradesh Secures Rs 14,600 Cr Investment at Kolkata Summit

Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav announced that the state secured investment proposals worth ₹14,600 crore at the Invest Madhya Pradesh event in Kolkata on Wednesday. These deals are expected to create over 16,900 jobs, marking a major step toward boosting the state’s economy and supporting India’s ‘Make in India’ and ‘Swadeshi’ initiatives.

Speaking with ANI, CM Yadav highlighted why Madhya Pradesh is a great place for businesses. “We have received a tremendous response, with investment proposals of ₹14,600 crore. This will provide employment to 16,000 people and prove to be a big milestone for the state,” he said.

He pointed out the state’s strengths, like its large landbank, reliable power supply, excellent transportation network, and peaceful labor environment. Yadav also encouraged business leaders to invest in both Madhya Pradesh and West Bengal, promoting growth across regions.

The Kolkata event attracted more than 300 investors with emphasis on the future PM MITRA Park at Dhar district. This garment and textile manufacturing center that will be inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on September 17 will establish Madhya Pradesh textile industry in the international scene and will generate many employment opportunities. Yadav held individual discussions with more than a dozen industrialists, presenting ready-to-go projects and industrial corridors and investor-friendly infrastructure.

Yadav pointed out the central location and good connectivity of Madhya Pradesh which made it perfect to such industries as organic cotton and textile industries. Another way he resonated with the audience is the mention of cultural figures such as Swami Vivekananda and Rabindranath Tagore, where Madhya Pradesh and Kolkata have common values.
