“If industry grows, through that industry, the state grows. Families also grow and live through the jobs created. In that way, industries are a sign of growth. As the chief minister of Tamil Nadu, my heartfelt thanks to all the industrialist-entrepreneurs,” Stalin said.


Minister for Industries TRB Rajaa in his address said that the government continues to take up the investment commitments put forth by the companies through continuous follow-up and had set up a committee comprising himself, the chief secretary and representatives from Guidance Tamil Nadu among others.


“Our government under the leadership of the Chief Minister M K Stalin formed a panel to follow up the investments committed by various companies,” he noted.


The commitments made by companies include ones that Stalin received on his overseas trip to attract investments, those commitments received by companies between 2021 and 2023 and also those received during Global Investors’ Meet held in January this year.


The DMK government assumed office on May 7, 2021.


Next week, the chief minister will be leading a delegation to the United States on August 27 to attract investments from various companies and top industrialists to Tamil Nadu.
