Highlighting the state's industrial strengths, Sai said Chhattisgarh is emerging as a leader in green steel production and is rapidly strengthening its position as a national power hub.
"The state has received investment proposals worth Rs 3.5 lakh crore in the energy sector alone," he added.
During the Hyderabad visit, Sai and the state delegation held meetings with senior executives of leading companies including Google India, IBM, Polycab India, Page Industries and Delta Electronics.
