"We will not stop at signing agreements. The government will remain a partner at every stage of investment, ensuring there are no hurdles," he said. He highlighted the state's 'Maitri' portal, a single-window platform aimed at facilitating quick approvals for land, permissions and other clearances for industries.
Speaking about energy sector reforms, Fadnavis noted that the recently approved five-year tariff plan will ensure that electricity tariffs decline annually. "Earlier, power tariffs rose by 9 per cent every year. Now, they will gradually reduce, providing great relief to industries," he said.
The chief minister further assured that the state has adopted a policy to keep the investment life cycle stable and predictable, thereby boosting investor confidence.
