Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Majhi and Vedanta Group Chairman Anil Agarwal jointly unveiled a ₹1 lakh crore investment roadmap aimed at transforming Odisha into a leading industrial and manufacturing hub in India.

The roadmap outlines Vedanta’s long-term expansion plans across multiple sectors, including aluminium, steel, renewable energy, and semiconductors, with a strong emphasis on green and sustainable development. The initiative is expected to generate over one lakh direct and indirect jobs, while bolstering infrastructure and downstream industries in the state.

Anil Agarwal stated that Odisha, with its rich mineral base and progressive policies, is poised to become the “natural capital of India’s industrial future.” The new investments will focus on value addition, energy efficiency, and technology-led manufacturing, aligning with India’s broader “Make in India” and Net Zero 2070 missions.

Chief Minister Majhi highlighted that the state government will provide fast-track clearances and infrastructure support to facilitate industrial growth and ensure inclusive development.

This massive investment push reaffirms Odisha’s growing prominence as a national industrial powerhouse, driving sustainable economic growth and employment opportunities across key sectors.
