Home | Feedback Vilasrao Deshmukh's "Maharashtra: Vision 2010"
Not very long ago, Maharashtra reigned supreme
among India's states. However, in the second half of the 1990s, the
state's finances were in a shambles, and industrial progress almost ground to a halt. Major
business houses began launching new projects in other states. Many
foreign investors steered clear of Maharashtra and looked for greener
pastures in Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu that lay thrust on New
Economy sectors like information technology, telecommunications,
pharmaceuticals and biotechnology.
Vilasrao Deshmukh, Maharastra's chief minister, is keen on regaining the state's lost glory. He recently toured the United States in a bid to convince foreign investors that Maharashtra is their natural destination. On Monday, July 10, Deshmukh unveiled his Vision 2010 for Maharashtra at the Indian Merchants Chamber, Bombay.
