Global Investor Summit In Bhopal: Countdown Begins, CM Mohan Yadav Reviews Preps; Colour-Coded Passes To Be Issued To Industrialists

Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): The state capital is gearing up for the two-day Global Investors Summit scheduled on February 23-24. Roads smoothed, footpaths cleaned, walls painted, fountains & lights installed, plants added... beautification done. The month-long work has finally come to an end!

Chief Minister Mohan Yadav reviewed the final leg of preparations on Saturday. He, along with a BJP chief VD Sharma & a team of officers, visited GIS venue Indira Gandhi Rashtriya Manav Sangrahalay, Kushabhau Thakare Auditorium, and Sadar Manzil (heritage hotel for VVIP guests) in Bhopal for inspection.

Over 30k registrations were done for the summit. Of which, more than 10k registrations were done in the last 3 days. As a result, the window had to be closed a day before.

Irrespective of the registrations, only 5k industrialists will be present in Manav Sangrahalaya when Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurates the summit on February 24. These include top industrialists of the country like Adani, Mahindra, and Birla.

According to media reports, the venue will accommodate only 25 thousand at the summit venue at once. Therefore, industrialists are allotted different time slots. As soon as the approval is done, they will be sent entry cards via e-mail.

To ensure a systematic process, industrialists will be issued passes of different colours according to their time slots. These time slots will be allotted based on the event the guest has applied for. For instance, those who want to visit the expo will be given entry for that specific venue.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will reach the summit at 10 am and will stay for one and a half hours, i.e., till 11.30 am. 3k industrialists will be present.

During PM Modi's inauguration program, 2k more industrialists will be present in the session hall. In this way, 5 thousand industrialists will be present at Modi's time.
