THE Chief Ministers of Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh and Delhi on Thursday invited India Inc to invest in their States, offering tax sops and favourable investment climate and promising better infrastructural facilities.
Speaking at the FICCI annual general meeting here, the newly-elected Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh, Ms Uma Bharti, said though her Government required about three years to improve roads, power and other infrastructural conditions, her Government was committed to bringing about an immediate change in attitude towards governance and make it business-friendly.
She said the State's abundant natural resources, including rivers, forest, minerals and very good law and order situation provided an ideal investment destination. Her Government has set up a task force to draft a plan to clearly outline the industrial policy, she added.
Setting an overall growth target of 6 per cent in Chhattisgarh, the Chief Minister, Mr Raman Singh, said the mineral-rich State was not only power surplus but had a government committed to pro-investment policy to improve its economic condition.
Envisaging her model for Delhi's development, Ms Sheila Dikshit, Chief Minister of Delhi, said every Indian was a stakeholder in the city.
She urged the captains of industry to direct flow of investment towards "clean" industries for environment conservation. Ms Dikshit said the State Government was encouraging greater use of IT in governance to make bureaucracy more transparent and accountable in order to raise people's confidence.
