He presented the state's growth story, citing a 39% rise in agriculture, a pool of skilled human resources and rich mineral reserves as key factors that make Madhya Pradesh a prime investment destination.The session drew participation from over 400 industry representatives.

‘MP second home for Guj investors’

Principal Secretary of Industrial Policy and Investment Promotion Raghvendra Singh said Madhya Pradesh offers over 1 lakh acres of land bank, 340+ industrial parks, and specialised clusters in IT, food processing and textiles. He said that Gujarat investors see MP as their "second home" due to the state's transparent land allotment system and streamlined project clearances.
