A.P. has become preferred destination for investors, says Bharath

Andhra Pradesh has become a top destination for investments, capturing 25.30% of proposed investments in the first nine months of FY 2026 according to Bank of Baroda. T.G. Bharath, Industries and Commerce Minister, attributes this success to strong leadership from Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu and Minister for IT Nara Lokesh, who have fostered a business-friendly environment and attracted significant investments, including those from ArcelorMittal Nippon Steel and Google. The government's focus on job creation and balanced development has also contributed to the state's appeal.
