Ahmedabad (10.01.2024): Addressing at the tenth Vibrant Gujarat Summit, Adani Group Chairman Gautam Adani has outlined the economic success of India under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He committed that the Adani Group will invest over Rs two lakh crore in Gujarat ($25 billion) thereby creating over one lakh direct and indirect jobs over the next five years.

Since 2014, India's GDP has grown by 185 per cent and per capita income by a stunning 165 per cent. This achievement is unparalleled, especially considering this decade's geopolitical conflicts and pandemic challenges. Adani Group Chairman Gautam Adani said, “Honourable Prime Minister, Vibrant Gujarat is a stunning manifestation of your extraordinary vision. It has all your hallmark signatures, merging grand ambition, massive scale, meticulous governance, and flawless execution. It ignited a nationwide movement as all our states marched forward – competing and cooperating to fundamentally remodel India’s industrial landscape.”

He said, “Your achievements on the international stage are equally remarkable. You have taken us from a country seeking a voice on global platforms to a nation that now creates the global platforms. The Solar Alliance platform, an initiative you conceptualized, and your leadership at the G20 platform, set a benchmark for a more inclusive world order. Adding the Global South to the G20 is a defining moment in modern history.”

“You don't just predict the future but shape it. You have reoriented India to become the world’s fastest growing nation, and positioned her as the global social champion driven by the twin philosophies of Vasudeva Kutumbakam and Vishwa Guru,” Chairman Adani Group said.

“And, the best is yet to come. With your foresight in harnessing India's youth to build a Vikshit Bharat and make India a fully developed nation by 2047, you have ensured that the India of today is poised to shape the global future of tomorrow,” he said.

At the previous summit, Adani Group announced investment of over Rs 55,000 crore by 2025 which has already surpassed Rs 50,000 crore across the various sectors and have vastly exceeded target of 25,000 direct and indirect jobs.

Chairman Adani Group said, “Today, I commit to further investments. We are constructing the world's largest green energy park in Khavda, Kutch, generating 30 GW of renewable energy over 725 square kilometres, even visible from space. We are expanding the green supply chain for an "Atmanirbhar" Bharat and creating the largest integrated renewable energy ecosystem. This includes solar panels, wind turbines, hydrogen electrolysers, green ammonia, PVC, and expansions in copper and cement production.”

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, His Royal Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed al Nahyan, Heads of Government of partner countries, Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel, ministers and Captains of industry were present on the occasion.
