Gandhi Nagar: Mukesh Ambani on Wednesday said Reliance will always remain a Gujarati company. Speaking at the Vibrant Gujarat summit, the coastal state’s flagship investment event, Asia’s second richest person heaped praise on Prime Minister Narendra Modi saying he is the most successful prime minister of India ever.
“I have come from the city of the Gateway of India to the gateway of modern India’s growth – Gujarat. I am a proud Gujarati…When foreigners think of a new India, they think of a new Gujarat. How did this transformation happen? 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,” he said.
Ambani said one-third of his company’s 150 billion dollar investments in India took place in Gujarat.
“Reliance was, is and will always remain a Gujarati company…Reliance has invested over 150 billion dollars – ₹12 lakh crores – in creating world-class assets and capacities across India in the last 10 years, of which more than 1/3rd has been invested in Gujarat alone,” he added.
