Of the Rs 55,000 crore committed at the last summit, Adani Group has already spent Rs 50,000 crore, he said.

The apples-to-airport group is now building a green energy park in Kutch having a 30 GW capacity spread over 25 square kilometre which would also be visible from space, he added.

Since 2014, India has achieved a 185 percent growth in GDP and 165 percent growth in per capita income which is unparalleled given the geopolitical and pandemic-related challenges, Adani said.
