PM Modi Highlights Growing Opportunities In Odisha At Make In Odisha Conclave 2025

On Tuesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi emphasized that Odisha is witnessing more opportunities than ever before. He called it the ‘right time’ to invest in the state.

Speaking at the Utkarsh Odisha – Make in Odisha Conclave 2025, PM Modi emphasized that the event is the largest business summit in Odisha. He noted that it has attracted 5-6 times more investors compared to previous events.

“I consider Eastern India to be the growth engine of the country’s development, and Odisha plays a major role in this. History stands as a witness that when India had a major share in global growth, Eastern India made significant contributions. Eastern India had large industrial hubs and ports. Odisha was a key sector for trade in South-East Asia. The ancient ports here were essentially India’s gateway,” PM Modi stated.

The Prime Minister further asserted, “Now, in the 21st century, Odisha is working to revive its glorious legacy. Recently, the President of Singapore visited Odisha, and Singapore is very excited about its relationship with Odisha. ASEAN countries have also shown interest in enhancing trade and tradition with Odisha. Today, there are more opportunities opening up in this region than ever before, more than at any time since independence.”

“Yahi Samay hai, sahi samay hai (This is the time, the right time),” the PM noted.

PM Modi assured investors that their investment in Odisha’s development would lead to new levels of success, stating, “This is Modi’s guarantee.”

The Prime Minister also discussed India’s growth, emphasizing that the country’s development comes from the aspirations of millions.

“People grow their aspirations when they have their needs met. In the past decade, the empowerment of crores of citizens has benefited the country. Odisha stands as a symbol of the optimism and originality of the new India. In industries like food processing, petrochemicals, fisheries, IT, edutech, textiles, tourism, mining, and green energy, Odisha is becoming one of India’s leading states,” PM Modi remarked.

The Prime Minister also highlighted that India is rapidly moving towards becoming the third-largest economy in the world. He further emphasized that the goal of achieving a five trillion-dollar economy is now within reach.

PM Modi highlighted the importance of two key pillars for India’s economic expansion:

  • The innovative service sector, and
  • Quality domestic products

“One is our innovative service sector and the other is India’s quality products. The country’s progress is not possible through the export of raw materials alone. This is why we are transforming the entire ecosystem and working with a new vision. Sea food is extracted from the sea here and is processed in other countries of the world and then reaches the markets; this trend is changing in India. Industries related to the resources available in Odisha will also be set up here, and our government is working in this direction,” PM Modi said.

Concluding his address, PM Modi stated that the Utkarsh Odisha Conclave is a crucial step in realizing the vision of a ‘Viksit Bharat’.
