Chhattisgarh |
|
|
|
|
|
Chhattisgarh, a 21st century State, came into being on November
1, 2000. Larger than Tamil Nadu, it is just the right size, and is
also fortunate to have a low population density. Good Governance is
the highest priority in this Fast Track State. There is both policy
stability as well as political stability. Government has been kept
small and the State is in excellent fiscal health.
Chhattisgarh is truly a land of opportunities. With all major
minerals including diamonds in abundance, it is the richest State
in mineral resources. There are mega industries in Steel, Aluminium
and Cement. Chhattisgarh contributes substantially to the Human
Resources of India. Several hundred students from the State qualify
for admissions in prestigious academic institutions every year.
Bhilai, the knowledge capital of the State, alone sends over 50
students to the elite Indian Institutes of Technology every year. A
unique Private Universities Act has been passed to attract
investments in quality higher
