Chandigarh, October 6 — During Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini’s visit to Japan, a delegation led by him signed a significant Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Japan’s prestigious Seiren Company Limited in Tokyo.

With numerous ITIs and skill development centers focused on textile and manufacturing, the state has a highly skilled workforce ready to support the industry. The MoU with Seiren will further strengthen Haryana’s industrial growth and generate substantial employment opportunities.

He emphasized that the investment will boost the manufacturing sector, elevate Haryana’s position on the global industrial map, and promote industrial innovation through the adoption of advanced technologies.
