Andhra Pradesh has emerged as the country’s top destination for industrial investment, attracting global attention for its speed of doing business and proactive governance, said Minister for HR, IT, and Electronics Nara Lokesh. Addressing the media at his camp office on Monday, Lokesh said the upcoming 30th CII Partnership Summit, scheduled to be held in Visakhapatnam on November 14 and 15, will serve as a global platform for business collaboration, innovation, and policy dialogue. The event, jointly organized by the State Government and the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), will feature participation from over 300 global industrial giants representing 45 countries.

“The NDA government is committed to providing employment to youth as part of our Super Six Promises, and we are moving in mission mode to achieve it,” Lokesh stated. He highlighted that Andhra Pradesh has attracted investments worth ₹10 lakh crore in just 16 months, crediting this achievement to the visionary leadership of Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu. “Top global companies like Google, Mittal, TCS, Cognizant and Premier Energy are choosing Andhra Pradesh for one reason, our unmatched speed of doing business,” he remarked.
