00:00India has started a lot of hotel projects.

00:05We have a lot of areas and scope, but we have only this much in our mind that something should start.

00:13Sir, in today's and tomorrow's meeting, you must have felt that there is a special interest in one or two sectors.

00:19Look, I don't want to say right now, but I am very optimistic that good work is going to happen.

00:25And the Indian government is also studying on its own, what PSUs can do, what can the industry house do.

00:34Now Pijus Goyal is coming to our roadshow.

00:38So the Indian government is our very active partner.

00:42In the next roadshow, Pijus Goyal will be there himself.

00:46I am not only pitching for Assam, the Indian government is also pitching for Assam.

00:53My question is that are we also pitching our strategic advantage?

00:59You met envoys of more than 30 countries today.

01:02We are seen as a gateway to the South East.

01:05You see, I think this is not the right time to talk about in view of the recent development of Bangladesh, Myanmar.

01:12I think this is not the right time to pitch for the strategic advantage because then there will be a lot of other questions.

01:20So we are pushing the advantage of Assam.

01:23So this is the advantage of Assam being the important state.

01:28People say, look at Myanmar from Assam, look at Bangladesh.

01:32I can also look at Bengal from Assam.

01:35Bengal is very close to Assam.

01:38Bihar is very close to Assam.

01:40So Assam's produce, just like we can send it to Bangladesh, we can send it to Bengal as well.

01:48That is why when I talk about strategic advantage, I say that I can give the Indian market to Assam as well.

01:57When the semiconductor will come, we are not developing semiconductor thinking Bangladesh and Myanmar.

02:04Our semiconductor ships will go to America.

02:07America will be our biggest market.

02:0948 lakh ships will be produced.

02:12So maximum it will go to America.

02:15So I am pitching that now it is a one wall, one grid.

02:20We have a gas grid.

02:22We have a lot of things.

02:24So don't put us in a chamber.

02:29We have to look at the whole country and abroad.

02:32When we talk about strategic location, people discount the rest of India.

02:38That you look there only.

02:40So my point is that goods can go from Chennai to Assam.

02:45Why can't goods go from Assam to Chennai?

03:02You see, this is a policy of state.

03:05And across the board, we have the uniformity that we need to develop Assam.

03:11So these are irrespective of political party.

03:15So any party, any government in Assam would like to continue, rather try to increase the policy parameter.

03:22So nobody will try to say that this is the commitment we want to downgrade it.

03:28So if next government, whoever will, government thereafter, they will try to only increase the basket.

03:35They will not try to reduce the basket.

03:47They are ambassadors.

03:51They are not users.

03:53I request them to connect me with their trade and commercial.

04:00And they should be independent.

04:03So different countries have different relations.

04:08For example, Finland.

04:10In Finland, Nomoliga refinery is working for Bamboo refinery.

04:14For example, Australia.

04:16In Australia, IIT Guwahati is working on water projects.

04:21For example, UK.

04:23UK is working with us.

04:25British Council is working on academic development.

04:29In Bhutan, they are working with us.

04:32In Galefur, they are working with us.

04:34So different states have different requirements.

04:36And some people don't even know about the state of Assam.

04:39So for the first time, many people have seen the state of Assam.

04:43Today, there are more than 100 countries in the world,

04:47who have seen the state of Assam for the first time in their lives.

04:51So I am looking for a basis for the future.

04:58So this is part of our...
