Odisha's Delhi outreach nets Rs 66,392 crore investment proposals: Majhi

The state government of Odisha, which is a state in India, went to New Delhi, the capital city of India, for a two-day trip to meet business leaders.

They wanted to invite companies to build factories and offices in Odisha.

Companies said they would invest a huge amount of money—about 66,392 crore rupees—which is an extremely big number.

This money could help create more than 54,000 jobs for people in Odisha.

The government signed 38 special agreements with companies for projects worth almost 65,000 crore rupees.

The Chief Minister also visited a factory that makes electronic products to learn about modern manufacturing.

The government says this shows companies trust Odisha and want to grow there.

But some people from the opposition party say that promises don't always turn into real projects.

They said that earlier a company promised a big investment but left, and that very little foreign money actually came to Odisha last year.

So while leaders are happy about the new promises, others want to see real results.
