Prime Minister Narendra Modi will visit Odisha and poll-bound Chhattisgarh on September 22 and will launch several projects in the states, his office has said.
PM Modi during his one day visit to Odisha is slated to launch a slew of projects, including a fertilizer plant at Talcher and inauguration of a new airport in Jharsugada.
Statement said, in addition to fertilizer, the plant will produce natural gas, which will contribute to the country’s energy requirements.
The inauguration of the airport in Jharsugada will bring western Odisha on the country’s aviation map, and facilitate regional air connectivity through the government’s UDAN (Ude Desh ka Aam Naagrik) scheme.
