The Global Investor's Meet here, from November 7 to November 8, aims at making Himachal Pradesh an industrial hub of the country, Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur said on Monday.
He also said on the tourism front, the state government plans to make Bir-Billing an adventure sports point and Pong Dam a water sports destination.
"The state government is organising the Global Investor's Meet at Dharamshala on 7-8 November. It is aimed at making Himachal Pradesh an industrial hub of the country," Thakur said at a programme to mark the Kangra Central Cooperative Bank's centenary year.
Referring to abrogation of Jammu and Kashmir's special status under Article 370, he said now India has one Constitution and one symbol. This was possible due to the strong leadership at the Centre in the form of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Thakur said.
The chief minister said making Himachal Pradesh an open defecation free state was a major achievement and that the hill state was getting full support of the Centre in development projects.
