In a decisive move to boost industrial growth and attract investments, the Rajasthan government has expedited the implementation of Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) signed during the Rising Rajasthan Global Investors Summit held last month. Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma has instructed government departments to ensure swift and time-bound execution of proposals, reflecting the state’s commitment to building an investor-friendly ecosystem.

Chief Minister Sharma has been personally spearheading efforts to secure funding for infrastructure enhancement and to mobilize resources for supporting potential investors. Earlier this week, he convened a high-level meeting with officials to review progress on MoUs valued at over ₹1,000 crore. This review marks a crucial step in ensuring that agreements translate into actionable projects.

In a significant development, the Chief Minister facilitated discussions between state officials and representatives of the Bank of Baroda and Bank of Maharashtra. These discussions led to the finalization of loan agreements aimed at funding infrastructure projects and welfare schemes. Under the agreements, the Bank of Baroda will provide ₹20,000 crore annually, while the Bank of Maharashtra will contribute ₹10,000 crore annually, amounting to ₹30,000 crore in additional funding each year until 2030. These funds are earmarked for projects in renewable energy, electricity, road construction, and water supply, among other critical areas.

To further accelerate progress, the government held a review meeting with departmental heads and secretaries to discuss the implementation of investment proposals. Officials from the Finance Department, Industries Department, and Rajasthan State Industrial Development and Investment Corporation (RIICO) provided updates on their respective areas. Chief Minister Sharma emphasized the need for adherence to timelines and regulatory frameworks to facilitate smooth project execution.

Chief Secretary Sudhansh Pant also chaired a meeting focused on MoUs involving investments between ₹100 crore and ₹1,000 crore. The government has established a three-tier monitoring system under the Chief Minister’s supervision to ensure transparent and efficient implementation. This system categorizes MoUs into three groups, A, B, and C based on the level of investor commitment. High-priority ‘A’ category projects are receiving dedicated attention for faster implementation, while ‘B’ and ‘C’ categories are being addressed as per their timelines and requirements.

The government has set ambitious targets to streamline the process of land allocation and investor support. By January 31, 2025, department secretaries and district collectors will assist investors in identifying suitable land parcels under RIICO, municipal corporations, or other state bodies. By March 31, 2025, all identified land parcels will be allocated to investors following due processes.

RIICO has introduced a Direct Land Allotment Scheme to expedite affordable land allocation for investors. In addition, an online portal has been launched to simplify the application process. Investors can now seamlessly apply for land using their Single Sign-On (SSO) ID, ensuring greater efficiency and transparency.

The Rajasthan government’s proactive approach under Chief Minister Sharma’s leadership demonstrates its determination to create an environment conducive to investment, industrial growth, and economic development.
