Jaipur: In a major step towards strengthening Rajasthan’s global connect, the state government is organizing sectoral sessions with community leaders abroad during the first ‘Pravasi Rajasthani Divas’, which will take place on 10th December 2025 in Jaipur.
Organized under the visionary leadership of Chief Minister Bhajan Lal Sharma, sectoral sessions will engage Pravasi Rajasthanis, industry leaders, and policymakers from various sectors like Industry, Education, Tourism, Health and Water, along with an NRR (non-resident Rajasthani) Roundtable.
Rajasthan’s rapidly growing industrial landscape, supported by progressive policies, offers new opportunities for investment and innovation. A session dedicated to the industry will invite NRRs to share insights on strengthening Rajasthan’s global competitiveness and entrepreneurial ecosystem.
Tourism, one of Rajasthan’s strongest economic pillars, will focus on unlocking new dimensions in heritage, cultural, and eco-tourism, with a special emphasis on regions like Shekhawati and its iconic havelis. The Education session will highlight initiatives and explore collaborations to enhance digital access, skill training, and higher education.
