Adani Group: Over the next ten years, the Adani Group plans to invest a substantial extra Rs 50,000 crore in the Northeast in a variety of areas, such as digital infrastructure, roads and highways, and green energy. At the ‘Rising Northeast Summit’ on Friday, Adani Group Chairman Gautam Adani made the announcement.

In the event Adani said, “A new chapter in India’s growth story is being written in the Northeastern hills and valleys over the last ten years. A tale of unrealized promise, resiliency, and diversity. Our strategic orientation, economic potential, and sense of cultural pride now come from this area. I declare that over the next ten years, Adani Group will invest an extra 50,000 crore throughout the Northeast.”

He also said, “In addition to smart meters, hydro, pumped storage, electricity transmission, roads and highways, digital infrastructure, logistics, and capacity-building through skilling and vocational training centers, we will concentrate on green energy. However, we shall invest in people more than in infrastructure. Local employment, local entrepreneurship, and community involvement shall be given top priority in all initiatives.”

Adani Credits PM Modi:

Mr. Adani praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi for driving development in the Northeast, declaring, “Hon’ble Prime Minister, when you said ‘Act East, Act Fast, Act First,’ you gave the Northeast its wake-up call.” He emphasized that this statement went beyond a simple policy directive; it marked the beginning of a transformative mission.

Since 2014, the government has actively demonstrated its commitment by conducting 65 in-person visits to the region, drawing in ₹6.2 lakh crore in investments, expanding the road network to 16,000 km, and doubling the number of airports from 9 to 18. Moreover, Mr. Adani highlighted that the Prime Minister’s vision of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas’ showcases his bold thinking, strong convictions, and commitment to inclusive growth. Pledging his support, Mr. Adani added, “Hon’ble Prime Minister, we will walk in step with your vision. To all brothers and sisters of the Northeast, we at Adani will stand beside your dreams, your dignity, and your destiny.”

This announcement comes just three months after the Adani Group committed to investing ₹50,000 crore in Assam. The investment will span key infrastructure sectors, including cement production, road construction, city gas distribution, power transmission, airports, and aviation hubs.

Building on this, Mr. Adani drew a parallel between Gujarat’s thriving investment ecosystem and Assam’s emerging economic ambitions. He highlighted Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s pivotal role in championing investment-led growth across India. Furthermore, Mr. Adani acknowledged that PM Modi’s vision, first launched through the Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit in 2003, has inspired governments nationwide to adopt similar development-driven policies.
