Gautam Adani Bengal Investment: The new government of Subhendu Adhikari, formed after the recently held 2026 assembly elections in West Bengal, is engaged in the transformation of the state. Meanwhile, many big decisions were also taken.
The government is also eyeing heavy industrial investment to take the state on the path of development. Due to this, the Chief Minister himself is meeting the corporate houses of the country so that not only Bengal is identified as a ‘business-friendly’ state, but with the big investment, people also get employment in large numbers and their economic condition also improves.
Preparation for investment in Bengal
Meanwhile, there are reports that the Adani Group led by the country’s veteran businessman Gautam Adani is preparing to expand its footprint in Bengal. According to a report by news agency PTI, a company official said on Thursday that Adani Group wants to increase its presence in West Bengal. The group is interested in infrastructure projects, which also includes the tunnel under the Hooghly River. Besides, the group is also demanding a transparent policy framework to promote investment in the state.
Tunnel under Hooghly River
Adani Group official told PTI that there is a lot of traffic problem in Kolkata. Due to this, Adani Group wants to work on an under-river project under the Hooghly River to connect Kolkata city directly to the National Highway and to transport heavy goods vehicles without any jam. “We are very interested in such projects,” he said, adding that such initiatives are in line with the group’s core capabilities in undertaking large-scale infrastructure development.
There will be entry in power sector also!
Adani Group is also evaluating investment in the state’s power generation and distribution network these days. He believes that the entry of private companies in this sector will increase competition, which will improve the quality of electricity. Apart from this, Adani Group has already said that it will also consider the opportunity of deep-sea port in the state. “Deep-sea ports are a good opportunity, but such big projects also come with many challenges, such as environmental clearance and jurisdictional issues between the Center and the state,” an official said.
