Because of one leader who has emerged as the greatest global leader of our times–PM Modi, the most successful PM in India’s history.”

“Reliance will contribute to making Gujarat a global leader in Green Growth. We will help Gujarat’s target to meet half of its energy needs through renewable energy by the year 2030. For this, we have started building the Dhirubhai Ambani Green Energy Giga Complex over 5,000 acres in Jamnagar. This will generate a large number of green jobs and enable production of green products and materials and will make Gujarat a leading exporter of Green Products. And we are ready to commission this in the second half of 2024 itself” Mukesh Ambani said.
“Second, Reliance Jio completed the fastest rollout of 5G infrastructure anywhere in the world. Today Gujarat is fully 5G enabled – something that most of the world does not yet have. This will make Gujarat a Global Leader in Digital Data Platforms and AI Adoption. 5G-enabled AI revolution will make Gujarat’s economy more productive, more efficient and more globally competitive. Besides generating millions of new employment opportunities, it will produce AI enabled Doctors, AI enabled Teachers and AI enabled Farming, which will revolutionise Healthcare, Education and Agricultural productivity in the State of Gujarat. This will benefit every Gujarati in urban as well as rural areas, since to my mind AI also means an All Inclusive growth” Mukesh Ambani added.“Third, Reliance’s Retail will further accelerate its mission to bring quality products to consumers and simultaneously empower lakhs of kisans and small merchants. Our Retail business improves the quality of life of all households of Gujarat with better products and services” the Chairman and Managing Director of Reliance Industries further committed.
