Rourkela: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday said a new era of progress and development had ushered in India and the country was once again back as one of the most favoured investment destinations in the world.
Addressing a public meeting here after dedicating the Rs 12,000-crore expansion and modernisation work of the Rourkela Steel Plant to the nation, PM said the pessimism that had set in minds of the investors with the regard to the prospects of the Indian market, had changed into optimism in recent times and big investment proposals are pouring in.
“For nearly a decade, there was a sense of pessimism in the minds of investors to invest in India…they were shying away from our country. In the last 10 months, we have brought about a change in the investment climate in the country. Many investors have shown their interest,” Mr Modi said.
