Chandigarh, Oct. 7 -- Haryana chief minister Nayab Singh Saini on Tuesday said the state government's aim is to increase investment in sectors such as semiconductors, green energy, warehousing and infrastructure with the cooperation of Singaporean companies. On the third day of his Singapore visit, chief minister attended a round-table conference organised under the Singapore business forum, and held discussions on investment opportunities across various sectors with representatives of more than a dozen Singaporean companies, office-bearers of the Singapore business federation, industry representatives, investors and business leaders. Saini said that besides Gurugram, the state government aims to develop cities such as Panchkula, Karnal, Hisar, Sonepat and Rohtak as the next growth centres for global capability centres (GCCs) and technology-led businesses. Addressing the round-table conference, chief minister said that although Singapore and Haryana are geographically distinct, their thinking and priorities are closely aligned. Singapore is a hub of innovation, efficiency and global connectivity, while Haryana possesses strengths in enterprise, manufacturing and market access. "The convergence of these capabilities can take the economic partnership to new heights," he said. The chief minister assured the participants that investors should bring opportunities and technology to Haryana, while facilitating investments and ensuring time-bound implementation would be the responsibility of the state government. He said that his team would provide support at every level by understanding the specific requirements related to land, approvals, infrastructure, talent and policy support. The objective now is to take this strong relationship forward in Haryana and north India with new investment opportunities, technology partnerships and shared growth. "I have not come merely to showcase Haryana's strengths, but to make Singaporean companies partners in a future in which Haryana will be among north India's most trusted, modern and rapidly growing business destinations," Saini said, adding that Gurugram is today one of the country's leading corporate and technology hubs....
