The Adani Group on Friday announced a fresh investment of Rs 50,000 crore across India’s northeastern region over the next decade, emphasising job creation, local entrepreneurship, and community development.
With this, the conglomerate’s total investment commitment to the region now stands at Rs 1 lakh crore.
Speaking at the ‘Rising North East Investors Summit’ alongside Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Adani Group Chairman Gautam Adani outlined plans spanning a wide range of sectors – including green energy initiatives such as smart meters and hydro-pump storage, as well as infrastructure projects in power transmission, highways, logistics, digital systems, and vocational training.
“We will invest in people. Every initiative will prioritise local jobs, local entrepreneurship and community engagement. This is what Viksit Bharat@2047 is all about,” Gautam Adani said in his address.
Adani Group Chairman added that Prime Minister Modi’s call to ‘Act East, Act Fast, Act First’ served as a wake-up call for the northeast region.
“Rs 6.2 lakh crore worth investments since 2014, doubling the road network to 16,000 kilometres, doubling the number of airports to 18 — this is not just a policy but a hallmark of PM Modi’s big thinking, belief systems and conviction in Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas,” Gautam Adani noted.
In February, the Adani Group had already pledged Rs 50,000 crore in investments specifically in Assam, making it one of the largest commitments by a private player to the state.
“To our brothers and sisters in the northeast, we at Adani will stand beside your side, your dreams, your dignity and your destiny,” the Adani Group Chairman emphasised.
The ongoing two-day summit serves as a platform for investors, policymakers, and industry leaders to explore opportunities in key focus areas, including tourism, agro-food processing, textiles, healthcare, education, IT, logistics, energy, and sports.
According to the Prime Minister’s Office, the event will also feature government-to-business sessions, startup exhibitions, and showcases of investment-friendly policies from both state and central authorities.
