Moreover, the Union Home Minister Amit Shah as well as the Lieutenant Governor of Jammu and Kashmir in a summit have invited the top industrialists in Gujarat to invest in the Union Territory, saying that J&K has been made capable enough to actively participate in global investment events like Vibrant Gujarat Summit.
