Adhikari highlighted that the state's business environment was not conducive for industries under previous political regimes and described his administration's mission to transform this situation. He mentioned an upcoming foundation stone-laying ceremony for an Adani Group hospital in New Town, scheduled for September 24. Adhikari had also spoken with Anant Ambani, whose company expressed interest in investing in West Bengal. Following Ganesh festival celebrations, Adhikari plans to meet Ambani and Anant to discuss potential investments. The West Bengal government aims to attract investments from both domestic and international sources in the coming months, with ongoing development projects expected to generate employment opportunities. Adhikari also announced that the newly inaugurated Style Bazaar will expand its footprint in the state, from 110 stores to the ambitious goal of 250 stores, generating further job opportunities. Style Bazaar has pledged to invest ₹5,000 crore over the next three years, including the acquisition of 1000 acres of land for a solar plant project.
