Hailing Gujarat as the gateway of modern India’s growth, entrepreneur and Reliance Industries chairman Mukesh Ambani on Wednesday said that he was ready to commission gigafactory in Gujarat in second half of 2024. Ambani was speaking at the three-day Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit being held in Gujarat.
Ambani also praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi, calling him the most successful Prime Minister in India’s history who was instrumental in transforming the state.
“I have come from the city of the Gateway of India to the gateway of modern India’s growth – Gujarat. I am a proud Gujarati. When foreigners think of a new India, they think of a new Gujarat. How did this transformation happen? Because of one leader, who has emerged as the greatest global leader of our times,” Ambani said, referring to PM Modi as “the most successful PM in India’s history.”
He added that Reliance was, is and will always remain a Gujarati company. “Gujarat alone will be a USD 3 trillion economy by 2047. No power can stop India from becoming 35 trillion economy by 2047,” Ambani told the crowd of investors in attendance at the summit.
“Reliance has invested over $150 billion dollars ( Rs 12 Lakh Crores) in creating world-class assets and capacities across India in last 10 years, of this more than 1/3rd has been invested in Gujarat alone,” Ambani added.
