Stating that Gujarat was keen to promote defence industry, Chief Minister Narendra Modi today invited private companies to set up their units in the state.

He was speaking at a conference on 'leveraging opportunities to create capabilities in Defence and Homeland security manufacturing', as part of the 6th Vibrant Gujarat Summit(VGS) in Ahmedabad.

Observing that a state can also play an important role in setting up defence capabilities of the country, Modi said that his government was planning to formulate a policy in this regard.
