Dhami stressed that more than 30 policies have been implemented to promote investment in the state during the last few years.

“As a result, Uttarakhand has attracted investments worth ₹3.56 lakh crore over the past nearly three years, and projects worth nearly ₹1 lakh crore have already been grounded,” he said.

The Chief Minister called upon the youth of the state to join the mission of making India a developed nation by 2047. He said the country could become strong, prosperous, and self-reliant through the talent, hard work, and determination of its youth.
