New Delhi, August 23: Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Sunday called upon industry leaders and business stakeholders to invest in Jammu and Kashmir, saying that investment in the Union Territory would contribute to the future growth of India.
Addressing the World Wisdom Forum organised by the IIT Alumni Council in New Delhi, Sinha said India's path towards becoming a developed nation must combine technological advancement with human values, while ensuring inclusive and balanced development.
He said the country has achieved significant milestones over the past 12 years and stressed the need to prepare for the responsibilities associated with the vision of Viksit Bharat by 2047.
The Lieutenant Governor identified several key challenges, including creating a highly skilled workforce equipped with emerging technologies, promoting sustainable development, strengthening transparent institutions, ensuring balanced regional growth and positioning India as a global creator of technology and innovation.
He emphasised that India should move beyond being a consumer of technology and instead develop and export innovations of its own.
Speaking about Jammu and Kashmir, Sinha highlighted the Union Territory's potential in areas such as youth development, tourism, horticulture, handicrafts, natural resources and hydropower.
He said the region has witnessed growing opportunities for young people and urged the industry to convert Jammu and Kashmir's potential into concrete investment and development initiatives.
Sinha also called upon the younger generation to prepare for the opportunities and responsibilities of 2047, stressing that economic progress should benefit every region and section of society.
The event was attended by MP Shashank Mani Tripathi, IIT Alumni Council President Ravi Sharma, NSE MD and CEO Dr Ashish Chauhan, along with eminent IIT alumni and other prominent citizens.
