Srinagar, Apr 5: Prominent industrialist and chairman of Anil Dhirubhai Ambani Group (ADAG), Anil Ambani, Thursday arrived in the Valley.
Anil Ambani will be staying in the valley for the next three days during which he is likely to meet Chief Minister Omar Abdullah to chalk out strategy for engaging Kashmir youth in his companies.
“Anil Ambani is very keen to engage Kashmiri youth in his multi-national companies and he is likely to handover offer letters to at least 100 youth who have degrees in computer applications and other industry related subjects,” sources said. They added that during his stay in the Valley, the industrialist is expected to hold meetings with business unit holders and chambers.
However, a senior minster in the state government revealed that Ambani was not on official tour to the Valley.
Former president Chamber of Commerce and Industries, Shakeel Qalander, told KNS that accommodating Kashmiri youth in multi-national companies would not only boost the morale of the youth but also pave way for other industries to follow the same line. KNS
GKNN adds: After landing in Srinagar on Thursday, Anil Ambani decided to proceed towards the tourist resort of Pahalgam. On way to the tourist spot, he got stuck in a massive traffic jam near Panthachowk on the outskirts of Srinagar forcing him to cancel his proposed Pahalgam visit and return to a Srinagar hotel.
According to eyewitnesses, Anil was stuck in the traffic jam for around 45 minutes.
