Tata talks to Rs 28,000 crore investment plans: Inside BJP Bengal government’s big industry push
The BJP government in West Bengal's Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari is discussing a potential Rs 28,000 crore investment from the Tata Group after initiating talks with the company. The government, which has taken over just four months after 15 years of the previous Trinamool Congress (TMC) rule, aims to create an "investor-friendly atmosphere" while generating employment to curb migration to other states.
Discussions on a new industrial policy are underway, set to be announced in August or September, with a focus on both traditional industries like jute and tea, as well as high-tech sectors such as semiconductors, artificial intelligence (AI), data centers, and global capability centres (GCCs). The government plans to address land availability and use, MSME support, improved road and logistics infrastructure, and ease of doing business.
