Added 20 November 2015

Governments have to easen, make sure that governance is corruption free and to make sure that our taxes are justified

Union Finance, Corporate Affairs and Information & Broadcasting Minister Arun Jaitley has said that India has been following a policy of attracting investment by easening the processes and the States should follow the same policy, thereby cutting down the time period during investment process.

Investors have a choice in selecting the place and different states are competing with each other. Inaugurating the Resurgent Rajasthan Partnership Summit held in Jaipur on November 19, 2015, Jaitley said that Rajasthan should become a pioneer in terms of ease of business.

Due to aspirational constituency supporting growth , reforms and change increasing, Jaitley said that amount of public support has also gone up. Governments have to easen, make sure that governance is corruption free and to make sure that our taxes are justified and also to make sure that all facilities like land etc. are made available in a non-discretionary manner.

Speaking on Rajasthan Jaitley said that Rajasthan is a land of history and its cities and villages literally symbolize history. It is the ability of the people of Rajasthan to go to all over the country and the world and multiply money and make their roots proud.

He urged the states to adopt such a model of growth wherein there is more investment from the private sector. Rajasthan has found its core areas -solar power, wind energy, tourism among others which will help Rajasthan grow.

Chief Minister of Rajasthan Vasundhara Raje said , "under the able stewardship of Prime Minsiter, Shri Narendra Modi, the Union Government is nurturing an ecosystem of strong empowered states". She said that the Rajasthan Model of Development rests on the triad of Social Justice, Effective Governance and Job Creation.
