Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar Holds Potential for Maharashtra's Advanced Manufacturing Growth
A very important business leader named Milon Nag visited a city in India called Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar.
He said this city can grow from a regular industrial town into a world-famous place for making things.
He works for a big group called CII that helps companies and the government work together.
The city has a special industrial area called AURIC where new factories and jobs can be created.
Global companies are looking for new places to build their supply chains, and this city could be one of them.
The state of Maharashtra wants to become a very rich economy worth one trillion dollars.
CII has made a list of six things to work on, like using robots, helping small businesses, and teaching new skills.
The city is also well connected by roads, trains, an airport and a port, which helps goods travel fast.
If everything works together, the city could create many jobs and help India grow stronger.
Milon Nag, Deputy Chairman of CII Western Region, said Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar can evolve into a globally competitive advanced manufacturing hub.
The Shendra-Bidkin Industrial Area, part of AURIC, was highlighted as a key catalyst linking investment, infrastructure, technology, skills and employment.
Maharashtra's ambition of becoming a USD 1 trillion economy will require stronger government-industry collaboration, according to CII.
CII identified six priorities including advanced manufacturing via AI and robotics, Ease of Doing Business, MSME competitiveness, future skills, green growth and regional development.
AURIC sits along the Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor, connected by the Samruddhi Mahamarg, highways, railways, an airport and the Jalna dry port.
