Chhattisgarh’s steel industry has received investor proposals of INR 1 lakh crore, according to State Minister for Commerce, Industry, and Labour, Lakhan Lal Devangan. He credited this surge to the successful industrial policy, which has created a favourable environment for growth and investment in the steel sector.
Minister Devangan highlighted that Chhattisgarh has been among the top beneficiaries of the Central Government’s initiatives, including the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme, which has further boosted investor confidence in the sector.
The new industrial policy has unlocked significant opportunities in the steel segment. Missions like Make-in-India, Aatmanirbhar Bharat, and Vocal for Local have also played a key role in strengthening the sector.
