Chhattisgarh shifts focus from red to green economy

Chhattisgarh is pivoting its economic strategy away from conventional red-sector industries towards a green economy model. The state, traditionally reliant on mining and heavy industrial sectors, is now emphasizing sustainable development and eco-friendly initiatives under a 'Made in Bastar' branding effort.

The shift reflects broader state policy to balance industrial growth with environmental conservation. Regional authorities are promoting renewable energy, sustainable agriculture, and green manufacturing practices as part of long-term economic transformation.
