 And this, ladies and gentlemen, is the maiden, the first global investor summit of Uttarakhand. It definitely stands as a very momentous and a historic moment for the people of Uttarakhand. But then it holds a lot of significance for the state of Uttarakhand for through this platform we get a chance to showcase to the world the immense potential and the opportunities which the state has to offer to the world and then let the world and the investors take more informed decisions regarding the investment in the state of Uttarakhand. And especially from the beginning, when Uttarakhand is completely ready for a new India's initiative to give its full contribution to this first global investor summit, then we are standing here with the chief architect of this new India, our Yashasvi Prime Minister, Mr. Narendra Modi. In this development journey of Uttarakhand, the Prime Minister of Manini is here and we are all very proud of the opportunity here. Thank you again to the Prime Minister of Manini, and now with the permission of the Prime Minister of Manini, we will present this meeting today as per our Indian tradition and as per our absolute faith, through the state of God and through the bondage. Bhadri Kedar, Panchprayag, Patit Pavani, Ma Ganga, Hari Kadwar, Hari Dwar and all the Devas and Devas of the Pooja. Prasthuthe Devyasajnoh, Uttarakhand's Mangal Geet. We are all the people of Uttarakhand, whenever we welcome our ancestors, we welcome them with this Mangal Geet. And now I would like to invite all the people of this community to welcome them. Honourable Prime Minister of India, Sri Narendra Modi ji. Her Excellency, the Governor of Uttarakhand, Shreemati Bebe Rani Maurya. Honourable Chief Minister of Uttarakhand, Sri Trivendra Ravadji. Honourable Minister for Communication and Information in the Republic of Singapore, Mr. S. Ishwaran, esteemed ambassadors of our partner countries, Japan and the Czech Republic. Excellencies, dignitaries, ladies and gentlemen. Namaskar. Let me extend at the outset a very warm welcome to honourable Prime Minister, who has been an inspiration behind the very idea of organizing investor summits, an idea which has now been adopted by state after state. Sir, we are very happy to adopt this idea and host the first ever summit of this magnitude in the state. I am very delighted to welcome Excellency, the Governor of Uttarakhand, to the inaugural event this morning. We are very happy to have Honourable Chief Minister of Uttarakhand, Sri Trivendra Singh Ravadji. Sir, this is an event which you have inspired and guided at every stage. A warm welcome to Honourable Minister in the Government of Singapore, Mr. I extend a warm welcome to Honourable Speaker in the Uttarakhand Assembly, Ministers in the State Government, Honourable Members of Parliament and Members of the State Legislature. A special welcome to Excellencies, the Ambassadors of Serbia, Argentina, Mauritius, to the Captains of Industry, Dignitaries, Delegates, Friends from the Media and all lovers of Uttarakhand and believers in the destiny of the state as a leader. Ladies and gentlemen, Uttarakhand is a new state but an ancient land. A land cradled in the lap of the mighty Himalayas, nurtured by the waters of Ganga and Yamuna, blessed by sages and gurus like Adi Shankara, Guru Bovind Singh Ji, the Sufi saint, Hazrat Sabir Kalyari, Swami Vivekananda and Mahatma Gandhi. Uttarakhand is a home to a people who cherish and value the environment, ethos, traditions and culture and yet have always been large-hearted and open-minded in their acceptance of the other. Uttarakhand has since ages served as a tapabhumi for all seekers of the spiritual light and wisdom, a magnet for lovers of nature and adventure. However, a new wind is now blowing over this ancient land. A wind of change that has stirred up latent forces of creativity, enterprise and commerce that has enthused our youth to look at innovative solutions and startups. It has provided inspiration to our women to organize themselves into self-help groups that undertake diverse economic activities ranging from production of prasad for our holy shrines to the maintenance of public roads. The winds have changed, have encouraged home owners in remote distant villages to set up homestays and adventure camps for tourists. Uttarakhand has grown at a rapid pace since its creation in 2000, much of it led by manufacturing primarily in the auto sector, pharmaceuticals, FMCG, food processing to name a few. Unlike the pattern evident in other parts of the country, secondary sector in Uttarakhand has been the private mover of the economy contributing to about 50 percent of our GSDP. As a consequence, the per capita GSDP of the state has risen by more than 10 times in the last 18 years. The state has witnessed a boom in infrastructure spending. The road network density has now expanded significantly. The per capita electricity consumption has grown about four times. 100 percent of our villages in the state have been electrified. In addition, the Bharat Net project launched under the aegis of the Government of India will soon ensure that linking of all villages with the information highway. While the state has grown at a rapid pace, I take pride in announcing that Uttarakhand has always supported the path of responsible and sustainable development. Therefore, while we see dramatic changes in investment climate, in infrastructure, in consumption patterns, it is equally fascinating to find that the forest cover has now become about 71 percent of our geographical area. The numbers of tigers and elephants have increased in the last 18 years of our existence as a state. And the cleanest stretches of the river Ganga are found within the territory of Uttarakhand. Ladies and gentlemen, the state government have after careful assessment of its unique advantages identified 12 focus areas of growth. First is the food processing, then tourism and hospitality, where the thrust among other things will be on destination development, rural homestays and major ropeway projects. Recently, the state government under the inspiration of Honourable Chief Minister has announced the policy for this sector. Wellness and Ayush, where Uttarakhand enjoys a natural advantage, automobile and auto components, particularly in electric vehicle manufacturing. In this sector, the state government has recently formulated a policy for electric vehicles manufacturing, usage promotion and related services infrastructure. Pharmaceuticals an area where the state has emerged as a significant producer and exporter. Natural fibers which grow in abundance in our fellow lands. Horticulture, floriculture and organic farming, especially in the seasonal, in the off season and high value crops, including organic crops. Herbal and aromatic plants where the agro climatic conditions is advantageous for production of rare herbs and oils and distillates. The state government has designed an attractive aroma park policy. Information technology where a large pool of educated humans resource can prove to be an asset. Biotechnology, film shooting an area where all major film producers have shown considerable interest. Renewable energy where we have a vast resource of untapped hydropower. In addition, considerable interest has been shown by investors in the solar energy sector. Honorable Chief Minister has announced a policy for the solar energy sector and a policy for the generation of energy from the abundantly available pine litter and biomass. We have also prepared a list of 50 suggestive investable projects along with the basic financials to provide a sense of our priorities and the opportunities of doing business in the state. Ladies and gentlemen, we feel that in the last 18 years since inception, Uttarakhand has established its credentials not merely as a business destination, but as an all-weather friend and partner in the progress and well-being of our investor friends. Let me submit to you that businesses which came to the state in the last decade and a half have realized the advantages of making Uttarakhand. They are permanent homes and these advantages are many. The state can boast of a salubrious climate and is relatively pollution-free. Water is in abundance. The human resource is educated, well-disciplined and well-disposed towards learning, new skills, a social environment which is peaceful, harmonious and relatively crime-free. The administrative is responsive to the needs of the industry and the Honorable Chief Minister is merely a phone call away. Uttarakhand is a frontrunner in the ease of doing business index among hill states. Uttarakhand is now very well connected with rail and road with Delhi and with the completion of the highway and rail projects in the near future, the travel time to Delhi is likely to be reduced to half of what it takes now. Deradun Airport already handles 44 flights connecting all major metros with an annual passenger load of about a million passengers. Ease of travel and the travel to all parts of the state is also going to improve dramatically with the completion of the Char Dham road project and the Rishikesh Karn Prayag railway line. Road connectivity is also being provided to all our villages, however remote they may be through the Pradhan-Mantri-Gram-Sadak-Yogana. The regional connectivity scheme, Udhan, launched by the central government will connect most towns in the state and the operation of the first scheduled commercial flight to Pythoragar, a remote district on the Indochina-Indo-Nepal border is likely to commence very soon. Land is cheap when compared to other parts of the country. Our modern and integrated industrial complexes are comparable to the best in the country. The state offers the most competitive power tariffs in the country. Very importantly we are conveniently located on the rim of one of the most developed market regions in the country comprising of Delhi, NCR, Western UP, Haryana and Punjab. And finally we offer some of the best schooling facilities in the country and for recreation the most well-known hill stations of the country are merely a stone's throw. Honourable Prime Minister sir, we feel indeed honoured to welcome you to our first investor summit and consider it our privilege to receive your continuing guidance. Your abiding love for Uttarakhand has expressed itself in myriad different ways. It was your concern for the development of the state that resulted in the launching of the ambitious and much needed all-weather Charlam road project, the Bharat Mala project which seeks to bolster road connectivity in the northern border areas of the state, a large number of interstate highway projects and the Kan Prayag railway project. These projects alone have brought in an investment of about eight to nine billion US dollars into the state. We are indeed grateful to you and look forward to your continued patronage. I once again welcome Honourable Minister from the Republic of Singapore, Mr. S. Ishwaran, Enterprise Singapore and the delegation that has specially come to explore partnership avenues with the state of Uttarakhand. Sir, we are extremely hopeful of a favourable outcome. Once again warm welcome to our partner countries, Japan and the Czech Republic. My warm greetings once again to excellencies, dignitaries and to all captains of industry and businesses and look forward to an extremely fruitful interaction in the two days of the summit. Welcome once again, come to Uttarakhand. We are ready to do business. Thank you. Thank you sir for highlighting the sustainable growth story of Uttarakhand till now since its very inception and also the immense potential which it has. So I would now like to request the Director General of CII, Shri Chandrajit Banerjee to kindly share his perspective with us. The Honourable Prime Minister of India, Shri Narendra Modiji, Honourable Governor of Uttarakhand, Honourable Chief Minister of Uttarakhand, Honourable Ministers, Honourable Members of the Parliament and Honourable Members of the Legislative Assembly, Excellencies, Distinguished Ladies and Gentlemen. It's a very very special moment for the Indian industry to participate in this first ever investor summit of this beautiful enticing hill state which has also been a strong spiritual destination for many of us. On behalf of the Indian industry and CII, I would like to congratulate the Honourable Chief Minister on this excellent initiative which has brought together some of the best minds who would work with you further for the development of the state. Thanks to the path breaking initiative of our Honourable Prime Minister, today we are seeing the innovative model of cooperation, cooperative and comparative federalism flourish so very well across the country. The states of India today are taking full advantage of this very strong call given by the Prime Minister at the very outset and as was mentioned by the Chief Secretary, we all still remember when the Prime Minister started an investor summit many many many years ago and since then today we see each and every state getting involved. In Uttarakhand in the last one year or so we have seen transformative steps being taken including near total electrification of villages, creation of growth centers where panchites in the state are proposed to be turned into hubs for economic activities. The state emerging as the number one amongst the hill states in terms of ease of doing business, announcement of the startup policy of the state, Ayush policy, new EV policy, new approach to tourism policy amongst others and I'm saying this because this has been a result of a very open and a very institutionalized mechanism of the state government with whom we have been able to deliberate very closely and regularly on all these initiatives. Keeping in mind the agenda and the ecology of the state, the industry that have come today are conscious of the priorities and wish to align with the state even as they pledge in further industrialization of Uttarakhand. Today we have presence from companies from automotive, energy, tourism and hospitality, healthcare and wellness, agriculture and diary, infrastructure, steel amongst some other sectors. Sectors like manufacturing, tourism, wellness and food processing are indeed becoming a booming business in the state due to the very proactive policies being taken for investment facilitation. We are promoting Uttarakhand as an organic state and have worked towards creating a cold chain storage and warehousing. We are also working to position the state as a wellness destination advocating for an integrated healthcare city. We have been creating platforms for enhancing the role of industry in the clean Ganga mission, sustainable urbanization and environment and pollution control, a CSR project on sanitation and disaster risk reduction was launched in over a hundred schools in Rudraprayag. Our project, Muskan has worked on improving the quality of education in government and municipal schools. We will continue to work with the state government for sustainable industrialization of Uttarakhand. May I once again congratulate the honorable Chief Minister and his entire team for this outstanding initiative and thank him for being so friendly on a welcoming state. Thank you sir. Thank you sir for sharing your views. So we now bring you greater insights into this exciting booming and vibrant economy of Uttarakhand and to a land which is often known as a tourist paradise and is now wanting to become also a business paradise. We bring you a short film. A symbol of faith and purity, a source of energy and wisdom. River Ganga has energized generations. The spirit of Ganga is the story of Uttarakhand, inclusive, inviting, inspiring. One of the fastest growing states in the nation, Uttarakhand is an engine of progress built on a solid foundation of industry. Its robust infrastructure, impact driven policies and ever growing connectivity options make it a favorable investment destination with progressive policies backed by the power of one to drive businesses both old and new. The state's young and skilled workforce is eager to accelerate its growth. The vibrancy and power of the Ganga fuels our approach to energy, setting the stage for substantial and sustainable development. Since the last 12 years, we have hired our factory at Kerala and I want to thank the government of Uttarakhand for all the support that they have provided in all these years to make this a very successful venture potential. Uttarakhand is blessed with enviable natural resources. Reliance is privileged to be amongst the largest investors in the state with investments of over 4,000 crore rupees in the last few years. Eternal, abundant, welcoming. River Ganga has always been our guiding force. Welcome to the home of the Ganga. Welcome to the Uttarakhand Investors Summit 2018. So we are now going to be having addresses by them for the next 14 minutes. Namaskar. Honourable Prime Minister of India, Shri Narendra Modi Ji. Her Excellency, Baby Rani Moura, Governor of Uttarakhand. Honourable Chief Minister of Uttarakhand, Shri Narendra Ji, Ravad Ji, all the dignitaries, all the United Guests. Any state or country where investment is only a portfolio, then its output is there. If you use the raw material in that investment, processing and value addition is there, the main power is used there. And the best thing is that if the output is in the same state or country, if not there, then it is in the past. I represent a milk company from last 38 years, so I can see the milk of the vegetables and the same is seen in Uttarakhand. Uttarakhand, if we talk about the state, we have seen a very beautiful state. Fastest growing state. If you look at the per capita income here, the per capita income of the whole India is more than 70 percent. And every climatic zone is here. And the best thing is that the people here are extremely hardworking, skilled and very, very trustworthy. And in food or animal husbandry and dairy, and I can say this based on my experience, that wherever there are two hands and the desire to work, there can be a lot of profiling in the dairy industry. In Uttarakhand, if you see, no doubt the rest of the industries are increasing. Agriculture here contributes 10 percent of the GDP of 2 lakh crores. And approximately 55 percent of the people are dependent on agriculture. Although 70 percent of the people live in the village. If we talk about the dignity of the dairy industry, no doubt India is the largest milk production country in the world. We have a dairy industry of 8 lakh crores. The whole world is growing in terms of 1.8 percent. But India is increasing by 5.5 percent from the last 5 years, which is a very important achievement for us. In Uttarakhand, if you see, the total profit of dairy industry is 2,000 crores. Approximately 1 crore-10 lakhs of the population here. Out of that, there are only 35-40 lakhs of urban population. And 5 lakhs of tourists come here for 4-5 days. The profit of the whole year is 2,000 crores. But out of that, only 15 percent of the people are produced and consumed. And the rest of the 50-50 percent come from the other states. And Delhi is also close to us and we have a production market here. And the biggest thing is that there is a lot of cost of production. Because the land here is good, the water here is very good available and the people are also good. So the cost of production of milk here is very low compared to the other states. And here, if the cooperative price here is cheap, they also have a very good network here and they also have a very good job. If we talk about the co-operation between Amul and Uttarakhand, then I would say Amul, which is the biggest food company of India at this time, is a turnover of 42,000 crores. We are signing an MOU with the government of Uttarakhand, in which we are committing that first of all, we will give them the market linkage of production, processing and marketing to advance the dairy industry. Apart from this, the most important thing is the training. How to increase the productivity of farmers and create good milk, we will also show them in Gujarat. For feeding, for feeding. We can also train for that and for input management. Apart from this, for breed improvement, cement doses. We have 10 lakh good breed cement doses of our own production. We will also give that to the Uttarakhand government. And the biggest thing that we are committing with them is that if you have any production facility or you have milk production, then if you want, you can also raise Amul products in spare capacity in spare milk. Whether it is milk, ice cream, cheese or other products. Apart from this, there is a cattle feed. Because here, if there is a good production of paddy in Udom Sinagar and Nainital area, which is a very big ingrate data for cattle production, we are also committed to using it for that. In the end, I will say that the farmers, whether they are Gujarat or Uttarakhand, every farmer thinks it is his duty to help each other. And I, the family of 36 lakh Gujarat farmers, who are Amul's owners, would like to make Uttarakhand's farmers believe that we are willing to help you and that you will bring the path of Uttarakhand's farmers. Thank you very much. Thank you very much, sir. The business experience in Uttarakhand is to be shared with us. Ladies and gentlemen, Czech Republic and Japan, our country partners, we thank them for their presence and their support. So first, I would like to invite his Excellency, Mr. Milan Hovorka, the Honourable Ambassador of Czech Republic to India, to kindly address us all. Namaskar. Good morning. Honourable Prime Minister of India, Sri Narendra Modi. His Excellency, Governor of Uttarakhand, Sri Babi Rani Mayur. Honourable Chief Minister of Uttarakhand, Sri Narendra Singh Ravath. My fellow ambassadors, captains of Indian industry, colleagues and friends. I would like to start by expressing my congratulations to the Honourable Chief Minister of Uttarakhand for successfully hosting this first-ever Destination Uttarakhand Investors Summit. Today I am a proud man, but as we are closer to yoga, capital of the world, Rishikesh, I should rather say that today I am a proud soul and a joyful soul to be here today and have the opportunity to address this distinguished audience. Thank you very much, Mr Honourable Chief Minister, for inviting the Czech Republic to participate as a partner country at this important summit. I would like to assure you that we value this gesture of trust and confidence. And I have to say that trust, confidence and mutual understanding have been major pillars in developing lasting, long-lasting friendship between our two great nations. And all these commonalities, synergies, good opportunities were present when Honourable President of India, Sri Ramnath Kovin was visiting the Czech Republic only recently, and let me recall only one of so many momentous and memorable occasions. It is related to the interaction the Honourable President had with the young Czech students of Indology. And after his talk, and now I am almost quoting, he said, after they were speaking, I mean the students, one in Hindi, second in Bengali, third in Tamil, and fourth in Sanskrit. I thought I am not in the Czech Republic, but in one of universities in India. Yes, yes, absolutely. A big round of applause followed that great statement, and I'm mentioning it to underline the strong bond of friendship between our two great nations. In economic areas, we try to develop mutual beneficial exchanges in which both countries benefit from their traditional strengths, complementarities of the economies, and their increased involvement in global value chains. The good thing is that our bilateral trade is continuously increasing. It is a two-way avenue, and it is likely to reach 1.5 billion US dollars this year. A number of Indian investors have discovered what apparently is one of the best trade and investment destinations in Europe, which is the Czech Republic. And I am equally happy that more and more Czech investors are now keen to benefit from tremendous opportunities offered by what has been for some time now, the fastest growing among largest economies in India. Turning now to Uttarakhand, the Czech Republic relationship, let me first congratulate the authorities and people of Uttarakhand, what they have done to put the state on the path on one of the fastest growing states in India. Promote is of doing business, is of living, and definitely open up the state, both to domestic and foreign investors. I am told, and I know that, that Uttarakhand is one of success stories of what manufacturing can develop to a state's economy in terms of economic growth and job creation. And the Czech Republic would like to support Uttarakhand in this ambitious program to expand manufacturing capacities. We are one of the countries which have highest industry to GDP share. It is more than 33%. And looking at, I believe, 12 sectors, I can perfectly see at least six of them, where the two countries, Uttarakhand and the Czech Republic could and should work together. These sectors include automotive, renewable energy, in particular hydro and biomass, food processing, information technology, travel and hospitality, and pharmaceuticals. Unfortunately, I don't have time enough to elaborate a bit on how we see mutual cooperation. Instead, I would like to invite all businesses present here to join us this afternoon. We will be having a county-specific presentation. I'll be having opportunity to address you once again, and definitely it will give me more opportunities to elaborate a bit on those sectors. To conclude, honourable chief minister Uttarakhand, let me once again thank you very much for inviting us, great honour and privilege to be here, and I would like to assure you that your able guidance and leadership, we will be able to take bilateral relations between the Czech Republic and Uttarakhand to a totally, totally new level. Thank you very much. Namaskar. Thank you, honourable ambassador sir, for various sectors where you see the potential, we really value the relationship with Czech Republic. And I would like to request and invite the honourable ambassador of Japan to India, his excellency, Mr. Kensi Hiromatsu for his address. Honourable prime minister of India, Mr. Narendra Modi, Honourable governor of Uttarakhand, Sbabi Rani Maria, Honourable chief minister of Uttarakhand, Mr. Trivendra Singh Rawat, distinguished ministers and business leaders, ladies and gentlemen, good morning. It is a great honour for me to speak at this suspicious occasion. The Japan-India relationship has never been better than it has since now today. During the first state visit of Prime Minister Modi to Japan in 2014, Prime Minister Modi and Prime Minister Abe opened a new era of their special strategic and global partnership. As ambassador of Japan to India, I have been privileged to witness first hand that our relationship has become truly special. Prime Minister Abe and the people of Japan are now looking forward to welcoming Honourable Prime Minister Modi to Japan for the annual summit meeting and are eager to see our relationship reaching new heights. The foundation for this solid relationship indeed lies in the vibrant economic activities led by the private sector of two countries. Japan is the largest investor for India among the major advanced countries. In the last five years, the amount of total investment from Japan has exceeded 10 billion US dollars, which is contributing significantly to making India and skills India initiative of Honourable Prime Minister Modi. That is why I'd like to congratulate all of you who have rendered their support in making this event happen. I am in particular pleased that Japan is participating in this destination Uttarakhand investment summit 2018 as a partner country. I'm also elated to be here in the state of Uttarakhand, a state which is endowed with the natural beauty of the Himalayans and the treasured religious heritage of Rishikesh and Hyderabad, a most sought destination for tourists from across the world, let alone Japan. It is evident that state of Uttarakhand has the best potential. Let me briefly touch upon what constitutes the bonds between this beautiful state and Japan. First, Japan and Uttarakhand have a strong record of cooperation with respect. Since 2014, Japan has been financing Forest Resource Management project here and will continue to support the development of Uttarakhand in such areas as disaster risk management, sanitation, agricultural development, and environmental preservation. Since business partnership is key theme today, I'd like to mention that already several Japanese companies have expanded their business in Uttarakhand. Japanese major automotive component manufacturers, then so as a factory in Hyderabad, there are around 300 employees working in this factory that produces generators, electronic ignition systems for two-wheelers. Anchor, 100% subsidiary of Japanese electronic company Panasonic, also has a factory in Hyderabad. There are around 4,600 employees in the factory which produces electrical wiring accessories including switches. In 2016, Anchor invested 1.15 billion rupees for expanding the factory. Anchor also has a skilled development center to improve the skills of its employees. Yesterday, I visited Gangamaki studio, a sustainable textile studio in the outskirts of Uttarakhand, run by Chiaki Maki, a renowned Japanese weaver and textile designer. The beautiful handspan and the hand-waltened textile produced here are a wonderful example of what can be achieved when Japan and India come together. In conclusion, I once again like to celebrate Inauguration of the Destination Uttarakhand Investment Summit 2018. On our part, we'll keep working together with Honorable Chief Minister Mr. Awat towards the development of Uttarakhand and the closer friendship between Japan and Uttarakhand. I hope this summit will be an opportunity for very fruitful discussions leading to tangible outcomes and I offer my best wishes for its great success. Thank you very much. Thank you Honorable Ambassador Sir for highlighting certain areas where you see greater ties between India and Japan and also yes the friendship between India and Japan has matured with the leadership meeting now it's going to be further evolving. Namaskar. Honorable Prime Minister of India, Sri Narendra Bhai Modi Ji. Honorable Governor of Uttarakhand, His Excellency Baby Rani Maurya Ji. Honorable Chief Minister of Uttarakhand, Sri Trivendra Singh Rawat Ji. Honorable Ministers, industry champions and dignitaries. It is an honor to be here in this land of stunning beauty. Charles Shearing, the celebrated anthropologist, best described Uttarakhand when he said, in these lovely valleys there is still the romance and poetry of life. Each tree has its God and each bush has its spirit and indeed we are all here today to talk about the spirit that defines Uttarakhand. The Adani group sees tremendous potential in Uttarakhand. Not only has Uttarakhand been one of the fastest growing states in the nation, clocking an annual compounded growth rate of over 11 percent over the past five years, it also happens to be the state where we have felt that the conducive industrial policies and the business friendliness of the state government is second to none. Adani group sees significant opportunities to help build out the infrastructure in Uttarakhand. We are committed to investing rupees thousand crores to upgrade the transmission sector, rupees five thousand crores in helping build the metro here and rupees five hundred crores to help develop the logistic parks and the grain silo terminals across the state. All in all we have embarked rupees six thousand five hundred crores for investment to help lay the infrastructure that the state requires for all round development. We have also signed a MOU with the Uttarakhand Organic Commodity Board to market and deliver farm grown produce to different parts of the country. On that note I would like to thank the Honorable Prime Minister for his path-breaking vision to position Uttarakhand as an organic state. Our collective efforts will go a long way in creating opportunities for the farming community as well as be a key attraction for the tourism and the traditional yogic practices prevalent in Uttarakhand. Speaking of farmers welfare, the reform driven new order set by Chief Minister Ravadji's government is already making a world of difference. Good governance stems from progressive policy intervention and creating an investment friendly environment while simultaneously keeping the welfare of our nation's farming community always in the forefront. The Uttarakhand government is rapidly becoming the benchmark for all the states to emulate. On behalf of the Adani group, I would like to thank and congratulate the Uttarakhand government for organizing this magnificent summit and providing us the opportunity to serve this beautiful state of Uttarakhand. We stand committed and I have no doubt that Uttarakhand will be one of the bright shining stars in the resurgent India's growth narrative. Thank you and Jai Hind. Thank you Mr. Adani for your support to the state of Uttarakhand. And now I would like to thank Acharya Balakrishnaji, Adani Balakrishnaji for his support to the state of Uttarakhand.

I would like to thank the Prime Minister of India, Mr. Narendra Modi, Her Excellency Rajipal, Madam Rani Moria, the Chief Minister of Uttarakhand, Mr. Trivindra Singh Ravadji, Uttarakhand Ministers, Ambassadors, Uttarakhand, among others. In this first investment summit of Uttarakhand, I am very happy to represent Mahendra Group. Uttarakhand, which we all know from the name of Dev Bhoomi, is dedicated to its natural beauty, which is for four realms. The holy rivers here, high mountains, rivers, beautiful glaciers and the love of the people here, have a special meaning for Angad and Agant. But today, I will not talk about the natural beauty or the powerful temples, but about the industrialisation here. After Uttarakhand summit, in very short time, an important destination for the industry has become an important destination. Mahendra Group is a part of the development of Uttarakhand. We are very proud of this. In fact, according to the manufacturing potential of this country, we had already done it before the pre-integrated industrial investment policy. The year this country was established, we started making tractors in our new Uttarakhand plant. After this, in 2006, we started an automotive plant in Haridwar, which came into the first plants in the new industrial policy. There was a small plant in which the scale has increased a lot. From there, we produce our top-selling models, Scorpio and Bolero, like cars. I am very happy that these two plants come into our most effusive plants. Until now, in Uttarakhand, we have made about 16 lakh cars and tractors from these two plants. This year too, about 1.5 lakh cars and tractors will be made in these two plants. Our total volume is 13 percent. Haridwar is our only location where we make electric three-wheeler, whose monthly capacity is 1000 cars. We have also contributed to establish our suppliers here, which is increasing investment and employment in this country. I still remember that in 2003, when I started making automotive plants in Haridwar, it was very difficult for me to explain it to our people. Today, people are asking me why we didn't take more land in that area. I would like to say that this industrial growth of Uttarakhand is not only because of the lucrative integrated industrial investment policy, but because of the high-quality world-class infrastructure in Sidkul, and the good performance of skilled workforce, and also because of Mr. Rawat's dynamic leadership. In addition to Mr. Rawat, Ease-of-doing business has been done well in the direction of ensuring it. The government is also proactive in approaching companies, and the investors are working to set up a business in Uttarakhand. In Uttarakhand, Mahindra Group is also growing in the hospitality industry. Our company is working on five world-class resorts in Mahindra Club. In the coming times, we wish to open more resorts in the same way in the country. Directly and indirectly, through our many businesses, we are providing about 10,000 people daily in the country. I would also like to support the good governance in the country. Since our plant has started here, it has been 18 years, we have not had to face any kind of dispute or issue since then. Mahindra Group has seen good opportunities for manufacturing, tourism, horticulture, and IT infrastructure in the country. Our plan is that in the next few years in Uttarakhand, we will invest more in manufacturing and hospitality, and further increase our capacity, and we will become a leader in the development of Uttarakhand. I would like to encourage the government to work on the development of the Uttarakhand Investment Summit, and the people here at Uttarakhand, who are involved in the development of the Uttarakhand Investment Summit, and to make sure that we can prove that Uttarakhand is a very good country for investment. Thank you, Jai Hind. Thank you, sir, for motivating everyone by sharing your business experience in the state of Uttarakhand. And now I would like to invite Shri Sanjeev Puri, Puri, the Chairman and Manishing Director of ITC Limited, an organization that already has a greater presence here in almost all three sectors of agriculture, manufacturing and services. Honourable Prime Minister of India, Shree Narendra Modi ji, Her Excellency, Baby Rani Maurya ji, Governor of Uttarakhand, Honourable Chief Minister of Uttarakhand, Shree Narendra Singh Ravadji, Distinguished Guests, Ladies and Gentlemen. It is indeed a privilege for me to share some thoughts in this first destination Uttarakhand Summit organized at this Dev Bhumi. As I begin, may I congratulate the Honourable Prime Minister for being conferred the highest environmental honour by the United Nations. Champions of the Earth Award, a testimony to his exemplary leadership to the issues of climate change, sustainable and inclusive growth. May I at this moment, Honourable Prime Minister, pledge to you that we in ITC will work relentlessly to sustain and strengthen our preeminent position as the only company in the world to be carbon positive, water positive and solid waste recycling positive. Honourable Chief Minister, may I also congratulate you for organising this summit, the first ever summit in Uttarakhand from the presence of the Galaxy of Leaders here, it is evident that your vision and tireless efforts to usher in a new paradigm of growth in Uttarakhand will be a lairity in the near future. Uttarakhand has received multi-faceted growth in the past. As a young state that just turns 18, we can see it bubbling with the dynamism and energy of a young adult. It is indeed commendable Honourable Chief Minister that in a short period of time of assuming office such great amount of energy and dynamism has been brought into the state and very rightly this summit focuses on all the three sectors of the economy, agriculture and manufacturing. ITC has a presence in all the three sectors of the economy, agriculture, manufacturing and services. We have been a partner in the progress of Uttarakhand for fairly long period of time with the footprint across all these three sectors. We have a large state-of-the-art manufacturing complex in Haridwar. It is in fact special to us because it is our first manufacturing complex making our food and personal care products. The complex also houses a large state-of-the-art printing and packaging unit that supplies to industries in this belt. Our experience in doing business in Uttarakhand has been extremely encouraging. We have truly experienced investor-friendly policies, a very proactive government under your leadership. Besides this we see the natural advantages that Uttarakhand has got of there being available, disciplined and skilled manpower, good quality of power and access to a lot of proxable markets. I also acknowledge the exemplary support that we have received from the Chief Secretary and his team during our operations in the state of Uttarakhand. We recognize that food processing is very important for the economy and that's the area that we have made substantive investments. Food processing lies at the intersection of agriculture and manufacturing and has enormous economic multipliers in terms of farm incomes, it has the best employment to capital ratios and creates a lot of livelihoods across the all value chains besides saving a lot of precious agri wastage. We have always endeavored to create in all our operations inclusive and sustainable value chain towards that we have been working with our most important partner for the food processing industry, the farmers in Uttarakhand. We have 100 each opals here which empower 10,000 farmers and seek to provide them best practices, seeks to teach them ways of sustainable agriculture and also provide market access. Three of our well-known brands are Sherwad Aata, Bingo Snacks and Be Natural Juices, Anchor, the Wheat Potato and the Fruits Value Chain. In the recent past as we launched Be Natural Juices and decided that we will only make it from pulp sourced in India, we have also started to develop and source fruit from the Himalayas here. And over time I think this will only be scaled up as our brands grow. We have also a nascent initiative in fresh and frozen vegetables and fruits, a range of products have recently been launched in the market and we have also procured some vegetables out of Uttarakhand and this is an initiative that we are putting enormous amount of trust in and over time we believe this will open new opportunities for us to enhance and contribute to the development of Uttarakhand. We have also made a meaningful contribution to the tourism landscape of Uttarakhand. We have eight properties under the Welcome Hotel, Welcome Heritage and Fortune Brands and given that tourism is a focus area for the state and it has enormous opportunities so we believe over time this is another area that we will be able to strengthen our presence. In our manufacturing plant in Haridwar we have so far invested about 1400 crores and we are looking forward to investing another 200 crores in the near future to expand the capacity as well as to upgrade the capacities there and we will, given the experience we have had I am sure more opportunities will come along the way. May I once again congratulate you honourable Chief Minister for ushering in a new sense of energy, dynamism and pro-activity in this state. I would like to reiterate our commitment to partner with you in your journey of transforming the state to a vibrant engine of growth. Thank you ladies and gentlemen. Thank you sir for contributing to a more inclusive, equitable and system of Uttarakhand and also joining our Prime Minister's mission of promoting the health of this planet. And now we have Shri Sajjan Jindal Ji, Chairman and Managing Director, J.S.Jabdu Group Group which is also called Strategic First Mover. My name is Pradhan Mantri Ji and I am the Prime Minister of Uttarakhand. I am the President of Uttarakhand, Shri Mati, B.B.Rani Moria Ji, Shri Thruvendra Singh and all the ambassadors from different countries and dignitaries in the audience. Today, why should Uttarakhand be invested in Uttarakhand? In this, why should Uttarakhand be invested in Uttarakhand? But my introduction to Uttarakhand is of a different kind. I studied here in school in my childhood. After that, I could not come to Uttarakhand for many years. But when our BJP government, Shri Narendra Modi Ji came as Prime Minister then I got the opportunity to go to Kedarnath. And after going there, I felt that I had gone to that temple for the second time. After that, I went to Kedarnath in 1999. I felt that I was very powerful and very sharp. But when I saw that such a big temple had come here and it was very painful then I came to know that the whole city of Kedarnath should be redeveloped. So I was very worried about how it should be redeveloped. Then I reached Delhi and it was a matter of nature. That day, Prime Minister called me and said that he wanted to meet me. He said that he had gone to meet me. I told him that I had gone to Kedarnath. He said that he had gone to Kedarnath. I told him that I wanted to redevelop that temple. Prime Minister said that he wanted to do a big job of my life. If you help me in that, I will give whatever help you need to do that. So this project of Kedarnath Kapunar Vikas, after that, Mr. Rabat became the Chief Minister. Then he made a master plan on it very quickly. In every three months, Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi reviews it. He takes a lot of interest. And each and every thing is discussed on it so minutely. If you go there, I will ask you to go there. Go to Kedarnath and see how quickly and beautifully it is being done. You might know that this temple was built by Adi Shankaracharya. Many centuries ago. So the construction of that temple is starting very quickly. Because the old temple was sold in Abda. Now it is becoming a beautiful temple of Mr. Shankaracharya. Although I am a businessman, my job is business. But this is our duty. Our ancestors have given it to us and we have to protect it. So the Prime Minister has given it to me and Mr. Rabat to make it better. We are doing it very quickly. JSHW Group is not present in Uttarakhand right now. But I have complete hope, especially my colleagues today. But it seems that it is very important to come to Uttarakhand. Otherwise I will miss an opportunity. So therefore I must come here and invest. Whether it is in steel, cement, food processing or agro processing. I think this is the place of Dev Bhumi and Uttarakhand. It is very important to invest in the industry and work here. And the people here are so good that we do not want to forget this land. So I will request all of you to come here and do tourism. Tourism has a great potential here. I have done a lot of trekking here in Uttarakhand. It is a very beautiful area. You can do it according to tourism or agro processing. It is a very powerful area and it is being developed very quickly. So you should also be a part of it. I will end my time here with this. Thank you. Jai Hind. Thank you very much Mr. Jindal. Thank you very much for your cooperation with Uttarakhand. And thank you very much for the work you have done with Kedarnath. And thank you for your business interest. Ladies and gentlemen, as you know India has been very closely working with the other countries in promoting bilateral trade relations. Especially with the Asia-Pacific regions. We have a look east to our policy. In other words that we are very glad that we have the Honourable Minister for Communications and IT of Singapore present with us. Who is also in charge of the trade relations. We would like to invite Mr. S. Esparan to kindly address us on. Your Excellencies the Narendra Modi. Honourable Prime Minister of the Republic of India. Your Excellency Governor of Uttarakhand. Baby Rani Maria. Excellency the Chief Minister of Uttarakhand. Mr. Vendra Singh Rawat. Distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen. A very good afternoon to all of you. I want to say first that on behalf of my delegation we are delighted to join you here at Destination Uttarakhand. Investors Summit 2018. I want to start by on behalf of our Prime Minister, our Government and the people of Singapore convey our heartiest congratulations to the Government of India, the Government of Uttarakhand and the Chief Minister on successfully organising this inaugural Investors Summit. And I also would like to thank you for the very warm hospitality you have extended to my delegation. India and Singapore are old friends, are close friends, are strong friends. Our relationship is built on the warm bilateral friendship that we have between our two Prime Ministers, Prime Minister Modi and Prime Minister Li Xianlong on the strong and deep people to people ties that we have and also on the growing business connectivity and economic connectivity between our two countries. In fact, historically our people to people ties go back over 200 years when early Indian entrepreneurs came to Singapore to explore opportunities and expand their business. And they continue to do very well in Singapore and the ties between our two countries continue to grow. If I can give you some examples to support that. Last year, India was Singapore's largest trading partner in South Asia and Singapore was India's second largest trading partner in Asia. India and Singapore have continued to make substantive investments in each other's economy. Direct investment from abroad, from Singapore to India has grown nearly 14 times in the last 10 years. From US$1.9 billion in 2006 to US$26.8 billion in 2016. And foreign direct investment from India into Singapore has increased by US$13.1 billion in the same past decade. And this growing economic relationship is underpinned by our comprehensive economic cooperation agreement, an agreement that we concluded the second review of in June this year thanks to the strong support from Prime Minister, for which we are very grateful. And we have now launched the third review of the Seeker in order to address the new digital economy possibilities between our two countries and how we can work together to make the reality. But we think and we want to do more between India and Singapore. And that is why I am here, the delegation is here and our companies are here at this inaugural investor summit in Uttarakhand. India is a vast continent with many opportunities in diverse states, cities and regions. And we in Singapore are committed to pursuing more opportunities for partnership with partners in India. I want to highlight three areas which we are focused on and we think we can work on those with Uttarakhand, with India and many other states. The first is Prime Minister Modi's visionary vision for smart cities. I think this is emblematic of his visionary leadership and we have sought to be involved in this contributing from Singapore's own experience and working with partners in India. One example that I want to highlight is the partnership we have with the Government of Maharashtra to develop the Pune Metropolitan Region. This project uses Singapore's expertise in urban solutions and aviation and it will help to ensure that one of India's most promising smart cities delivers on its potential. But we believe we can also do something similar in Uttarakhand and Derudun is in fact one of the smart cities that has been identified. We have therefore got some of our companies here who want to see what the opportunities are and how we can work together. Mineheart, which is one of the largest project engineering companies is one of those companies that is here and they are keen to explore project management opportunities in Uttarakhand as well as other states in Northern India and I'm very sure that they, Mineheart and many of the other companies will find significant opportunities. The second area I want to highlight is in tourism and we believe Singapore can contribute to the tourism aspirations of this state. Yesterday I had the privilege of visiting some of the sacred religious sites in this state. I went to Kedarnath, Badrinath, Gangotri and Harithwar. As a Hindu it was a spiritually uplifting experience for me but I was also left impressed and overwhelmed by the breathtaking beauty of this state and I now know why this is called Dave Bhumi and I congratulate you on having such a wonderful, beautiful state and I believe that there is significant potential to promote religious adventure and ecotourism between your state and Singapore. When the Chief Minister visited Singapore you mentioned that a large proportion of your tourists are locals meaning people from India. I think there is much potential for international tourists to visit your country for this tourism to be developed in an eco-friendly manner and in Singapore every year we have about 17 million tourists and I think some of them would tremendously enjoy visiting Uttarkan and many of the very impressive tourism sites that you have here. The last point I want to make where I think we can work together is in air connectivity. Today there are around 528 weekly flights between India and Singapore and just last month, Indigo launched its latest weekly service from Kolkata to Singapore and I am glad that the airline carriers are expanding their capacity recognising the growth and the demand from many of the visitors from both sides from India and Singapore who are keen to make more connections between the two economies and also at the people to people level but we believe there is scope to do much more because when we enhance our air links we enhance business opportunities and we also enhance the way that our people can come together more frequently and closer. Today amongst the cities in northern India Singapore carriers currently fly to Amritsar and Lucknow I hope that our carriers will soon be able to fly more frequently to more cities in the northern part of India so that we can enhance the connectivity and I hope in particular that we will soon be able to fly direct from Singapore to Deradun because I think that will be a significant move. So I want to conclude by saying that Singapore remains your steadfast friend for India's growth, for Utarkhand's growth and we believe that there are many opportunities for us to deepen and broaden the relationship between our two countries and between the state of Utarkhand and Singapore. I would like to thank Prime Minister Sri Narendra Modi Chief Minister Sri Trivendra Singh Rawat and the Government of Utarkhand for inviting me to this summit and for giving me this enlightening opportunity to discover the beauty of your state. We wish you all the best and we look forward to being your close partners. Namaskar. Thank you very much. Thank you sir for admiring the beauty of Utarkhand and also the various potential areas where you see where India and Singapore can work together and further look forward to greater growth of both the countries. So I would like to invite the dynamic Chief Minister of Utarkhand, Sri Trivendra Singh Rawat ji, to kindly share his progressive vision and mission with us. And this is the summit at Destiny's in Utarkhand and I would like to thank you all. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. On this occasion of the summit at Destiny's in Utarkhand in 2018, today our Prime Minister of the Middle East, Prime Minister of the United Nations, Sridhay Adan and Narendra Modi ji, Rajapal Utarkhand, Srimati Baby Rani Maurya ji, and our foreign ministers from Singapore, Sri Srinji, Japan, and the King of the Czech Republic, my support minister, and on this occasion, all the guests of our country, whose country and world are very well known, and who have recognized India, all of our old friends, among us, today, when the Prime Minister has come, for us and for Utarkhand, it is a very fortunate day. I am very proud of the Prime Minister of this summit, and today, I would like to congratulate the Prime Minister on the behalf of the people of the Uttarakhand, and on behalf of all of you, on the behalf of the entire Uttarakhand, I would like to congratulate him very, very much. I am very proud of the Prime Minister, that when I announced to you that Uttarakhand is a summit in Uttarakhand, and that it will be our first experience of the state, the Prime Minister immediately gave me his support, and with that, my support minister, and our team, our officials, have gained a lot of strength and energy. And I believe that today, the way Uttarakhand is located here, and when we, in many states of the country, and in the great cities, look at the preparations for this summit, the roads that we have done there, and we spoke to the people of the Uttarakhand, to the people of the film industry, to the people who are associated with the Parisian region, so we have received a lot of praise from the Uttarakhand people. And for the Uttarakhand, it was such a long journey for the investors that we had to stop the registration a few days earlier. We have received a lot of praise from the Uttarakhand people and the summit is taking place. Today, all of my great-grandfathers, those who have respected me, who have come here to honour me, I have received a lot of praise from them. I believe that this summit of the Uttarakhand is the idea of the Prime Minister, the idea of cooperative federalism. That is why we have got the opportunity to do it. And today, we want to establish a healthy, a healthy, a healthy, and a sustainable development for the development of the Uttarakhand. And the Uttarakhand that we are thinking of in 2025, the Uttarakhand will celebrate its success. The Uttarakhand will be 25 years old. Our imagination, our idea of a destination Uttarakhand will reach the new age and we will move ahead with the new flight. That is my belief. Ladies and gentlemen, when the Uttarakhand summit took place in 2000, the Uttarakhand summit was very close to the Uttarakhand in Rajya. And all the facilities of the Poonji Nivesh were very few. Mr. Sridhe Atal, when he came to Nainital and was the Prime Minister of the Congress, the Prime Minister, Mr. Sridhe Atal, who made this Rajya where he gave the status of Uttarakhand, he also gave a special industrial package to Uttarakhand. And after that, Uttarakhand started to connect with Nain. And we can say that the Uttarakhand which had a capital income of 25,000 rupees, today, it has reached the Uttarakhand at a capital income of 1,78,000 rupees. That is why we say that Uttarakhand is a very progressive state which is moving very fast towards development. We all know that Uttarakhand is very beautiful in the form of Nessar. When we were talking to Mr. Iswaran, I invited you to Singapore and said that you have come. You have accepted my request. I thank you for that. But he said one thing that when I went to Badri Kedar yesterday, I realised why Uttarakhand is called the second land. He realised it there. And the second land Uttarakhand which is very beautiful in the form of Nessar, the human heritage here is very solid. It is made of metal. It is made of metal. And in this skilled Uttarakhand, I think that for the students, it is a very unique environment. We have IIT. We have NIT. We have IIM. We have CPET. And all the engineering students who have a big name, we have such colleges which need a skilled manpower for education. We have them today. You have become a member of that state. I thank you once again. I would like to say that the sectors which we have focused on especially, we have a picture of tourism and hospitality. There is horticulture, food processing, herbs, aromatics. There is health wellness, pharma industry, automobile industry, natural fibre, IT and renewable energy, and skill development. The start-ups were based on a specific structure. In these areas, we have focused on the development of the state and the facilities. We have all the facilities that we need to develop these sectors. We are involved in the state and we have focused on focusing on this. When I met all of you today, and I felt that we need some policy changes and we would like to work more closely with you. In the last month, we had 10 policy decisions in this state. We have two cabinets in front of the five of us. We have five cabinets and we have an extraordinary effort. When we talk to them, we feel how they are connected and how they work to get rid of these connections. We have done a great effort in the last month. I think that the suggestions we had, we have included them mostly in this. We have changed them based on their policies. We have also signed the MOU more than we did. We are very happy about this. Today I would like to tell you that our special guest is Haridwar, Udham Singh Nagar. But the suggestions that we have, the suggestions of Nivesha are Hill State, and behind the construction of this state there was a very important reason for the distant areas of the mountains to reach there. The suggestions that we have, whether it is related to Britain, whether it is related to the solar system, whether it is related to the aeromatics that are developing in the distant areas, I think that all the investments that are coming in, it will be successful in reaching the distant areas. And the suggestions that we have made in the Uttarakhand, will definitely be successful. The network we are seeing in Uttarakhand, we have 3,000 km of national highway, 35,000 km of our roads, that is, the roads that we need, are connected to the distant areas of the Uttarakhand, the first part of the Uttarakhand. The work is going on very quickly, and the rail is giving us a gift, for the Uttarakhand. All the roads are from Muradabad to Dharchulatak, this is your gift, this is the first road in the Uttarakhand, which we have got. Apart from this, all the districts in our district have been improved, along with the connectivity of the Uttarakhand. The Uttarakhand is very close to the Uttarakhand. With the help of the Prime Minister of the Uttarakhand, we are getting a gift from Delhi, Baya Pakha, Saranpur, we can reach Dharadun in just 2-3 hours. We are getting a gift from the Prime Minister of the Uttarakhand. We are getting a gift from the direct rail line of the Uttarakhand. We can reach Dharadun in just 3-4 hours, from Delhi to Dharadun. We will be very close to the country, and we will be very close to the country to understand our healthcare present. We will be very close to the country. To reassure the people, I pray that Allah So we have started work on the district 30 new destination, for which we have resumed all the places and for which we have provided all the facilities and for which the DPR is being prepared, for which we have provided our budget so that we can come here from the investors who we are to come here, so that we can easily establish our resources there. Yesterday, we have bought a political environment and land for Kray Vikra. Because of that, the development was still in progress in our area, I think that the development will also be improved from that environment. If we look at the renewable energy sector, we have a 4,000 megawatt capacity. We have also done research on Pine Needle by the scientists of Dehradun. And with Pine Needle, Tarpinoyl, Tarkol, Diesel and Biomotor, we have also done research on Pine Needle, Tarpinoyl, Tarpinoyl, Tarpinoyl, Tarpinoyl, Tarpinoyl, Tarpinoyl, Tarpinoyl, Tarpinoyl, Tarpinoyl, Tarpinoyl, Tarpinoyl, Tarpinoyl. And with Pine Needle, Tarpinoyl, Tarpinoyl, Diesel and Biomotor, we have started our research on electricity. We have also started our research on renewable energy. We have also started our projects in some places. And this way, our biofuel policy has been prepared. And this is the opportunity to provide 50,000 people daily in our Pirool leaves. If we look at it this way, in the organic field, when the Prime Minister came to Kedarnath Ji last year, and you had said that we should develop the Pine Needle in the form of an organic state. And we have just started it. And we are preparing about 10,000 clusters in the entire Pine Needle so that we can focus on them and do organic farming there. The demand for organic products is very high today. And by default, we can say that the area of the Pine Needle is quite a part of the organic field. Now we will provide it. Our organic certification board is working on it. And it is definitely a big field for the organic. This is the demand in the Pine Needle. On this occasion, once again, thanks to the Prime Minister and the Prime Minister. On this occasion, thanks to the Prime Minister and the Prime Minister. Thank you very much. Thank you very much.
