Address by Mr Gautam Adani, Chairman, Adani Group

Madhya Pradesh Global Investors Summit 2025 Bhopal | 24 Feb 2025

Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi-ji, Hon’ble Chief Minister Dr Mohan Yadav-ji, Distinguished Guests, and friends,

It is a privilege to attend the Global Investors Summit 2025, here in Bhopal, and to address this incredible audience. It is also an honour to speak before both the Hon’ble Prime Minister and the Hon’ble Chief Minister on this momentous day.

Hon’ble Prime Minister —

Under your visionary leadership, India has been reshaped forever. You have transformed our country from a nation that once followed global trends to one that now defines them. Your initiatives, like Make in India, Digital India, and Atmanirbhar Bharat, have propelled our economy into an era of self-reliance and innovation. Never before has India’s confidence been higher, and never has our nation commanded greater respect on the global stage. When a country believes in itself, the world too believes in it — and, Hon’ble Prime Minister, this resurgence of belief has been driven by your relentless efforts.

Hon’ble Chief Minister —

Your administration’s relentless focus on ease of doing business and infrastructure development has made Madhya Pradesh one of India’s most investment-ready states. The projected GSDP of over Rs 15 lakh crore in FY25 is a testament to your pro-business vision and commitment to growth. Leadership is not just about building roads and bridges — it is about paving the way for endless possibilities. And you are creating these for Madhya Pradesh.

Now, as Madhya Pradesh takes this leap forward, the Adani Group is proud to stand beside you. We have already invested more than Rs 50,000 crore across energy, infrastructure, manufacturing, logistics, and agri-business, creating over 25,000 jobs. But our journey here is far from over.

Today, I am proud to announce new investments of over Rs 1,10,000 crore in the areas of pumped storage, cement, mining, smart-meters and thermal energy. These multi-sectoral investments will create more than 1,20,000 jobs in Madhya Pradesh by 2030.

Besides these investments, I am pleased to state that we are in further discussions with the state government for a greenfield smart city, an airport project and a coal-gasification project that would involve an additional investment of Rs 1,00,000 crore.

Hon’ble Prime Minister, Hon’ble Chief Minister —

These are not just investments. These are milestones in a shared journey — a journey that will make Madhya Pradesh a national leader in industrial and economic growth. They reflect our deep confidence in your leadership and our unwavering commitment to this state’s extraordinary rise.

We stand ready to support your vision of a stronger, more prosperous Madhya Pradesh.

Thank you. Jai Hind.
