In a press briefing regarding the investment summit Rathore said that the biggest challenge before us is to erase the bitter experiences of investors which they have faced during the previous government.
“The previous government made money by selling industrial lands that were auctioned at high prices. Consequently, those who bought those lands instead of setting up industries there used them for real estate. In the previous government, land was sold, but not a single industry was set up,” said Rathore.
He said that the summit is an opportunity to showcase Rajasthan as one of the most business-friendly states that is undertaking a massive administrative overhaul to make the industrial landscape investor friendly. For the first time in Rajasthan, the summit is being organized on a global scale for which the patchwork has been laid by tying up with partner nations and partner international organizations.
He further said that several new policies will be launched by the government to ensure that all major sectors of the economy are in sync with the investor-friendly vision of the government.
