Jaipur, Sept 2025 : Chief Minister Shri Bhajanlal Sharma said that the professional skills of Non-Resident Rajasthanis have made them a trustworthy and respected community. Their tradition of hard work, philanthropy, and social service has kept them connected to their roots in Rajasthan. He added that the government is introducing the Non-Resident Rajasthani Policy-2025 to strengthen ties with the diaspora and provide greater investment facilitation.

On Friday, Shri Sharma interacted with leading philanthropists and eminent personalities in Hyderabad. He stated that nodal officers have been appointed in every district to address the concerns of Non-Resident Rajasthanis promptly and maintain constant contact. “If a Non-Resident Rajasthani takes a step toward their homeland, the government is ready to move two steps forward with them,” he said.

The Chief Minister announced that the first Non-Resident Rajasthani Day will be held on 10 December in Jaipur to honor those who have made outstanding contributions in arts, culture, science, business, and social service. He urged the diaspora to actively participate in investment, education, health, rural development, and women’s empowerment to contribute to the state’s prosperous future.

Dialogue with JITO Entrepreneurs

Shri Sharma also engaged with entrepreneurs of the Jain International Trade Organisation (JITO) in Hyderabad and released the JITO Connect-2025 poster.

The community has strengthened the state’s economy through professional skills, ethical values, and vision.

He cited examples including Shri Bhanwarlal Jain, founder of Jain Irrigation Systems Limited, whose work in micro-irrigation has transformed agriculture, and Shri Magraj Jain’s “Society to Uplift Rural Economy,” which created employment and empowerment opportunities for women in remote areas of the Thar Desert.
