Maharashtra Launches ₹10 Lakh Crore Infrastructure Plan to Lure Global Investors.

Maharashtra is launching an ambitious ₹10 lakh crore infrastructure initiative to become India’s top investment hub, Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis announced recently. The plan, which aims to attract global capital, was detailed during a meeting with Indian Foreign Service officers at his Varsha Residence.

The massive undertaking includes projects for highways, ports, airports, power plants, and urban development. Fadnavis highlighted the Samruddhi Expressway and the new Vadhavan Port as central to the state's strategy. He noted the expressway will connect 26 districts to the port, significantly lowering logistics costs and reshaping the state’s economic landscape.

According to Fadnavis, the Vadhavan region is set to host India’s first multi-modal hub, integrating a port, airport, bullet train, and highway network. This zone will also be the site of a “fourth Mumbai,” while Navi Mumbai is planned to feature a new university township, sports city, medi-city, and innovation city.
