Maharashtra state deputy chief minister Devendra Fadnavis held talks with Avaada Group for setting up a green hydrogen project worth Rs 45,000 crore in the state.

The project can generate employment for 12,000 persons, he said. The Eknath Shinde-led Maharashtra government was recently under fire after a semiconductor project by Vedanta-Foxconn and military aircraft project of Tata-Airbus were bagged by Gujarat, PTI reported.

Had a very detailed meeting with team Avaada Group led by Vineet Mittal on green hydrogen, an important anchor of future energy transition as a part of Hon PM Narendra Modi ji's vision, Fadnavis tweeted.

We have assured them all support and look forward for collaborative development and creating green, renewable future together, he added.
