“Reliance has invested over Rs 12 lakh crore in creating world class assets and capacities across India in the last 10 years. Of this, more than one-third has been invested in Gujarat alone,” said Ambani.
“Reliance will continue to play a leading role in Gujarat’s growth story with significant investments in the next 10 years.
