We are committed to bringing world-class manufacturing capabilities to this region unlocking Marathwada’s potential by generating employment, developing skilled talent, and fostering inclusive and sustainable growth.” He further added, “With robust government support, we are confident that our presence here will act as a catalyst for regional transformation. It aligns with our broader vision of contributing to India’s industrial development and the national aspiration of Viksit Bharat @2047.” These include the rollout of industry-relevant skill development programs and extended support to educational institutions across the region. These efforts reflect TKM’s long-standing commitment to its core philosophy of ‘Grow India – Grow with India’.
