Adani's visionary strategy aligns the conglomerate with global efforts to combat climate change, positioning it as a front-runner in India's transition to green energy. "We're forging a comprehensive renewable energy ecosystem for an Aatmanirbhar Bharat," Adani emphasized, pledging substantial funds toward this monumental initiative.
Highlighting India's economic strides under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's governance, Adani referenced the Adani Group's prior commitment of Rs 55,000 crore by 2025, a target they've nearly surpassed, having already injected Rs 50,000 crore into various sectors. "Our promise of 25,000 direct and indirect jobs has been substantially surpassed," Adani proudly declared.
Beyond the investment, Adani Group's venture into a 30 GW green energy park in Kutch, spanning 25 square kilometers—a project potentially visible from space—stands as a testament to their commitment to sustainable development. He underscored India's exceptional economic growth since 2014, registering a remarkable 185% GDP growth and a 165% surge in per capita income, overcoming various geopolitical and pandemic-induced challenges.
Adani applauded Vibrant Gujarat as a pinnacle of Prime Minister Modi's vision, acknowledging its scale, governance, and transformative impact on India's industrial landscape. He credited the summit for fostering healthy competition and collaboration among states, reshaping India's industrial trajectory.
