Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia and Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav co‑chaired the second Investors’ Meet in Mumbai, securing fresh investment commitments of ₹2,000 crore for India’s first Telecom Manufacturing Zone (TMZ) in Gwalior. With earlier commitments, the TMZ now has a cumulative ₹5,500 crore pledged and is projected to generate over 18,000 jobs. The Minister highlighted a three‑pronged strategy – domestic value addition, IP creation, and export‑ready Indian‑designed products – to shift India from a services‑led to a product‑led telecom sector under the ‘Make in India, Make for the World’ vision. A joint Centre‑State SPV will steer implementation, leveraging Gwalior’s central location, connectivity and upcoming Agra‑Gwalior Expressway.
