Bengal showcases growth at IITF pavilion

The ruling Trinamool Congress in West Bengal has been able to restore the faith of investors in the state which was missing under the earlier Left regime, a minister in the Mamata Banerjee government said here today.
Bengal minister Partho Chatterjee made this claim while inaugurating the state's pavilion at the India International Trade Fair here.
Based on the theme, 'Come to Bengal: Ride the Growth', the state's pavilion attempts to project its growth story at the annual trade fair.
Investment in many sectors, including infrastructure, has increased in the last four-and-a-half-years under TMC government, said Chatterjee, who holds the school education, higher education and parliamentary affairs portfolios in the Bengal government.

He said that the stalls at the pavilion aim to highlight the work done under the chief ministership of Banerjee.
Progress has been made in the fields of education, industry and health in the state and more will follow in the future also, he said.
The artistic and cultural heritage of the state has also been highlighted at the pavilion.
