Talking about investing in Haryana, CM Lal stated that they have the features required to attract investors. “We are far ahead than other states. We have the location, work force, environment, land, and moreover an atmosphere which wasn’t there before. The law and order in Haryana is good, we have skilled power, a positive government, and we are more business-friendly. The rate of growth here is much higher than the national growth rate consistently. Another advantage is that we are closer to the capital of India, Delhi, and closer to the International Airport of Delhi.”
