Goyal noted that the Madhya Pradesh’s gross state domestic produc grew by nearly 20% last year.
Lauding Madhya Pradesh for making rapid strides in good governance, Goyal said this reflects the impact of the double engine government which is working to fulfil the PM’s vision of rapid transformation.
He expressed confidence that the Green Hydrogen Mission launched by PM Narendra Modi, combined with support of Madhya Pradesh government will help in bringing huge investments in several sectors particularly in green hydrogen and renewable energy.
Goyal said PM Modi has on many occasions emphasised that the strength of India lies in its states and if India has to move forward it is very important for states to move forward.
