Gautam Adani Unveils ₹50,000 Crore Investment Commitment for Assam at Advantage Assam 2.0 Summit

In a landmark announcement at the Advantage Assam 2.0 Investment & Infrastructure Summit 2025, Gautam Adani, Chairman of the Adani Group, pledged a massive investment of ₹50,000 crore in Assam. The announcement was made in the presence of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, Assam’s Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, and several other key dignitaries, underscoring the pivotal role the Adani Group intends to play in Assam’s economic transformation.

Adani began his speech by expressing deep admiration for the beauty and cultural significance of Assam, stating, “Every time I set foot in this sacred land of Maa Kamakhya, I am captivated by its natural and limitless beauty.” He also emphasized the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, acknowledging how the Prime Minister’s vision had reshaped Assam’s future.

A Tribute to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Leadership
Adani paid a special tribute to Prime Minister Modi, calling him the architect of Assam’s integration into the broader Indian growth narrative. “Just as the mighty river Brahmaputra reshapes the landscape of this state to carve its own path, I must say that it is our Hon’ble Prime Minister who has reshaped the landscape of possibilities for Assam,” Adani said.

He highlighted the Act East Policy, which aims to strengthen connectivity and trade with Southeast Asia, as a game-changer for Assam. According to Adani, this initiative is not just about enhancing infrastructure but about transforming the region into a dynamic economic powerhouse that will be a key player in India’s future.

Reflecting on Prime Minister Modi’s early vision, Adani recalled the Resurgent Gujarat initiative in 2003, which laid the groundwork for the now-iconic Vibrant Gujarat Global Summit. Adani noted that the success of the Vibrant Gujarat initiative has inspired other states, including Assam, to embrace the power of investment-driven economic growth.

Praise for Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma’s Vision and Leadership
Adani also praised Assam’s Chief Minister, Himanta Biswa Sarma, for his visionary leadership. He commended Sarma for his efforts in addressing pressing social issues such as drug abuse and child marriage, calling them not just campaigns, but missions to reshape the soul of Assam.

The Adani Group Chairman also expressed admiration for Sarma’s bold infrastructure vision. “From the semiconductor manufacturing initiative to the strategic linkages across the Brahmaputra River, I see lifelines of progress, bridges to prosperity, and pathways to a brighter future,” Adani remarked.
