As Odisha moves towards its vision of Samruddha Odisha by 2036, the State Government under Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi is accelerating industrial growth with an emphasis on inclusivity and balanced regional development. The approvals came at the 139th meeting of the State Level Single Window Clearance Authority (SLSWCA) chaired by Chief Secretary Manoj Ahuja. According to official sources, the spread of investments across diverse regions will help ensure that economic growth is accompanied by job creation, stronger local economies, and equitable industrialization. The new projects reflect Odisha’s twin focus—strengthening traditional sectors such as steel, infrastructure, and tourism, while promoting sunrise sectors like green energy, electric vehicles, data centres, bio-fuels, and pharmaceuticals.
