Khalid Murshed, Chief Technology and Information Officer of E& (previously Etisalat), a prominent international technology and investment company, met with Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav at a high level during his official visit to the United Arab Emirates.
prospective collaborations were identified and advanced throughout the discussions; according to Murshed, the conference was a “great discussion exploring the areas of potential future collaborations.” In an indication of a proactive strategy to promoting bilateral business ties, he underlined the significance of creating tangible business cases and case studies to further these potential.
CM Yadav met with Salim MA, Director of LuLu Group International, in addition to E&, to talk about Madhya Pradesh’s investment opportunities. These gatherings were a part of a larger plan to promote the state’s business-friendly climate and draw in foreign direct investment.
Yadav previously spoke at the ‘Madhya Pradesh Business Investment Forum Program’ in Dubai, where he emphasized India’s technological innovations and resolute security measures, particularly citing Operation Sindoor as an illustration of the nation’s developing defense capabilities in the era of drone warfare. He emphasized the link between economic growth and peace, saying that trade and investment are always hampered by conflict.
Senior officials, Consul General Satish Kumar Sivan, and Sahitya Chaturvedi (Secretary General, IBPC Dubai) were among the dignitaries who attended the conference, which highlighted Madhya Pradesh’s strong investment potential.
With the help of the state’s newly implemented pro-business policies, Principal Secretary Raghwendra Kumar Singh listed important industries that are ready for investment, including food processing, autos, electric vehicles, textiles, renewable energy, pharmaceuticals, logistics, and storage.
Additionally, CM Yadav met strategically with officials from the Gulf Maharashtra Business Forum, TATA Group, Sharaf Group, and the International Chamber of Commerce UAE to discuss prospects in supply chain infrastructure, logistics, IT, renewable energy, and other areas. One noteworthy topic of discussion was the creation of a Rail Siding Logistics Park in Madhya Pradesh, which has the potential to produce up to 600 jobs and attract $30–50 million in investment.
This trip to the UAE is a component of Yadav’s global outreach as part of the “Global Dialogue 2025” plan, which seeks to establish Madhya Pradesh as a top investment destination, cultivate technological collaborations, and generate new job possibilities. CM Yadav plans to continue his investment drive in Spain after his engagements in the UAE, advancing the state’s economic integration with the rest of the world.
