Maharashtra: Industrialist Anant Ambani calls on RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat during Nagpur visit
Nagpur, June 20
Industrialist Anant Ambani visited the headquarters of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh in Mahal Nagpur on Friday and held a meeting with RSS Sarsanghchalak Mohan Bhagwat.
Anant Ambani visited the RSS headquarters in the Mahal area as part of a courtesy interaction with the RSS Chief. During his visit, he also paid respects at the Dr Hedgewar Smruti Mandir in Reshimbagh.
The memorial complex is dedicated to RSS founder DR K B Hedgewar and MS Golwalkar (Guruji).
Earlier, while addressing shareholders at the 49th Annual General Meeting (AGM) of Reliance Industries, Anant M. Ambani said, "We are progressing towards operating Jamnagar as the world's first end-to-end autonomous refinery - an industrial milestone that will define the next era of global refining. Jio-bp petrol and diesel volumes grew 29% YoY with the retail network growing to nearly 2,200 outlets"
Anant M. Ambani stated that the world, which once relied on Middle Eastern oil, will now build its new energy future on "Indian sunshine." Ambani announced that the Giga Complex and the Kutch Solar Farm combined are set to create 2,00,000 green jobs, marking a significant milestone in the country's employment and renewable energy landscape.
"New Energy will create 2,00,000 green jobs through the Giga Complex and the Kutch Solar Farm combined. The world built its old energy on Middle Eastern oil. The world will now build its new energy on Indian sunshine," he said.
Highlighting the scale of operations at the Dhirubhai Ambani Green Energy Giga Complex in Jamnagar, Ambani noted that the facility, spread over 5,000 acres, has emerged as one of the world's most integrated clean energy manufacturing ecosystems.
"The Dhirubhai Ambani Green Energy Giga Complex at Jamnagar, spread over 5,000 acres, is now one of the world's most integrated clean energy manufacturing ecosystems. Nearly 1 GW of HJT modules have been produced. We have achieved ALMM listing for HJT technology - the first in India for this advanced cell type," he added.
Beyond renewable manufacturing, Ambani also underscored Reliance's role in ensuring national energy security during global crises. He pointed out that when the West Asian conflict led to disruptions in LNG supplies, Reliance moved swiftly to protect domestic interests.
"When the West Asian conflict disrupted LNG supplies, Reliance swiftly redirected its domestic gas to priority sectors such as city gas distribution, fertilisers, and power generation. When the nation needed it most, Reliance delivered," he said.
Earlier on Friday, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh also visited the RSS headquarters and met Mohan Bhagwat during his Nagpur tour.

While the economic vision is impressive, I hope such meetings don't blur the line between business and politics. India's strength lies in institutional independence. Still, the renewable energy push is commendable - 'Indian sunshine' sounds promising! ☀️
Great to see corporate leaders respecting our cultural roots while driving innovation. The 2 lakh green jobs target is ambitious but achievable with Reliance's track record. India finally has a roadmap to become a global energy powerhouse! 👏
As an observer of Indian business, I find this meeting noteworthy. The intersection of corporate strategy and ideological alignment is fascinating. Reliance's energy security measures during the West Asian crisis show strategic foresight. The world is watching India's green transition closely.
Honestly, I'm more interested in how these green jobs will benefit ordinary Indians. The numbers sound impressive, but we need assurance that local communities in Gujarat will see real opportunities. Also, I hope the mega solar farms don't displace farmers. Just my two paise! 🤔
This is exactly the kind of synergy India needs - modern industrial vision rooted in civilizational values. From Hedgewar to Ambani, the journey of nation-building continues. Jai Hind! 🚀
