Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi returned triumphant from the Delhi Investors’ Summit, announcing a record-breaking ₹1.39 lakh crore in investments and over 95,000 job opportunities for the state.
This two-day summit, held from April 7–8, marked a turning point in Odisha’s journey toward industrial excellence and economic growth.
During the summit, the CM signed 13 Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) with leading corporations, including a historic ₹58,042 crore investment agreement with Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL) set to create 24,000 jobs. The move is expected to establish Odisha as a hub for petrochemical and chemical industries.
Positive discussions with HCL Technology’s leadership on setting up an HCL campus in Odisha reflect the state’s growing appeal as an investment destination. The CM also engaged with Union Home Minister Amit Shah to address law and order improvements, focusing on modernizing police forces, combating cybercrime, and suppressing Naxal activities. Plans to deploy forensic vehicles, establish 20 cyber police stations, and create a specialized industrial security force were key takeaways.
Chief Minister Majhi credited the state government’s initiatives for paving the way for these successes. “These developments will transform Odisha into a prosperous, industrial powerhouse, bringing security, employment, and growth,” he emphasized.
