New energy in renovated Udyog Bhawan
Lights are being still on till late night in the corridors and chamber of Udyog Bhawan where the key industry department officials sit. The renovation at Udyog Bhawan has not only lent a new look to the building but also has injected new enthusiasm in the atmosphere. Officials of nodal agency – Bureau of Investment Promotion – have started following it up with investors to know their further course of action.
“We have got clear instructions to keep a tight follow up and facilitate the investors for executing their plans. For us, the work is not even completed 10%, we need to buck the past records and ensure 100% realisation,” said a BIP official.
The state government is serious about implementation of investment commitments. The chief minister Bhajan Lal Sharma has announced to present the report card of Rising Rajasthan on December 11, 2025 – exactly after a year. He has also announced to organise next edition of Rising Rajasthan in 2026 based on the performance and realisation of this summit.
“We have less than 365 days we have to follow up with more than 10,000 MoUs signed up in the summit. That means mathematically we need to touch 30 investors every day and facilitate them with their plans,” the official said.
