Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav said that the 21st century marks a prominent era of intellectual advancement. He noted that while the 18th and 19th centuries were defined by economic growth through agriculture and cotton, and the 20th century saw progress driven by petrochemicals, the current age is characterized by the global prominence of intellectualism. He highlighted India's esteemed position in global knowledge and assured that the Madhya Pradesh government is committed to offering IT companies an excellent environment and facilities. Dr. Yadav expressed his pleasure that Cognizant has selected Indore for its new center, emphasizing that this development signifies Indore's rapid rise as a key tech hub, supported by its growing infrastructure and skilled workforce. This achievement, which has provided employment to approximately 500 IT professionals, underscores both the states and Indore's significant progress in the IT sector.
