"We are already invested in Madhya Pradesh in a big capacity. We have more than 1,000 employees working in Madhya Pradesh. We are now looking to consolidate many of our other operations and establish a significant presence in Madhya Pradesh, investing in large-scale capacity and infrastructure. So we are very much looking forward. He has given his consent and acceptance, indicating that he is willing to support industries like ours in setting up there. So we look forward," he said.
He added that if the government agrees to support them, Madhya Pradesh can be set up as an organic state.
"Madhya Pradesh is a very big organic state in India, and if we are able to set up and get good support from the government, we are expected to grow not just the organic movement from India but from Madhya Pradesh and give a lot of benefits to the farmers of India," he said.
