Odisha Cabinet Approves 10 New Initiatives for Tech, Power, and Farmers

The Odisha cabinet, convened in Bhubaneswar on Monday, approved a package of ten proposals designed to accelerate the state's technology sector, expand power generation and transmission, and provide new support mechanisms for farmers. The decision, announced by Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik, is part of a broader strategy to modernise rural economies and improve energy access across the state. While the specific details of each proposal were not disclosed in the brief statement, officials said the measures will include incentives for tech startups, investment in renewable energy projects, and subsidies for agricultural inputs. The move follows a series of policy initiatives launched earlier this year to attract private investment and enhance infrastructure. Analysts expect the package to create jobs and improve productivity in key sectors.
