A total of 39 MoUs were exchanged worth Rs 18,300 crore in the sectors including residential (19), commercial (eight), hospitality (four), infrastructure and film and entertainment (three each ) and finance (two)
The real estate companies that signed MoUs include Signature Global, Samyak Group, Raunak Group, Hiranandani Constructions and NBCC for housing projects. Chalet Hotels signed MoU for hospitality.
Raheja Developers, Goel Ganga, GHP Group and Shree Naman Group signed initial pacts for housing projects.
Addressing the summit, Union Minister for Housing and Urban Affairs Hardeep Singh Puri said the proposals for Metro rail projects in Jammu and Srinagar cities are in final stage of approval from the Public Investment Board (PIB).
He urged the UT Government to organise an annual summit like World Economic Forum at Davos, in J&K and assured full support from the Centre.
The Union Minister highlighted that Metro projects will soon be a reality in J&K.
“Metro projects are in final stage of PIB approval,� Puri said.
He further said the Centre would consider the demand to extend the metro projects to the proposed AIIMS hospital at Vijaypur outside Jammu (falling in Samba district).
“The local Member Parliament (Jugal Kishore Sharma) brought the issue to my notice that the Metro project (which is proposed up to Bari Brahamna) should be extended to Vijaypur where AIIMS is coming up.
“The proposal mooted by the MP will be taken into account,’’ Puri said.
He also sought to allay apprehensions that investments in J&K will lead to unemployment.
