How Maharashtra Lost Another Project (Tata-Airbus) To Gujarat After Vedanta-Foxconn| Eknath Shinde

"In September 2022, when the Vedanta Foxconn semiconductor project worth 1.45 Lakh meant to set up in Maharashtra was shifted to Gujarat at the last moment, the Shinde-Fadnavis govt had assured the state that they have spoken to Prime Minister narendra Modi and he has assured the state that the state will be getting bigger project that Vedanta-Foxconn. The project if it would have come up in the state would’ve ensured 1.5 Lakh+ jobs directly and indirectly according to the state official assessment. But Maharashtra let go of it because it was promised bigger project.
Now one doesn’t know about the bigger project or when the state would get it but Gujarat has got another project. And again from Maharashtra.
On Thursday, it was announced that the Tata-Airbus defence manufacturing project will be set up in Gujarat. Reportedly, this project was to be set up in Maharashtra’s Nagpur. The 22,000-crore Tata-Airbus project will manufacture of 56 military transport aircraft that will replace Indian Air Force’s aging Avro fleet. With this, 4th such project that promised to generate jobs for the local youths has slipped out of the state’s hand and the opposition isn’t very happy about it.
