At the 'Ocean of Opportunities' Pavilion, showcasing the vast potential of Saurashtra and Kutch's coastal regions, the Prime Minister showed keen interest.

Presentations by the Gujarat Maritime Board on the blue economy, along with innovative technologies displayed by stalls such as Reliance New Energy, attracted considerable attention. The exhibition also demonstrated the balance between industrial growth and environmental sustainability.

To encourage local arts and small-scale industries, an MSME Pavilion was organised under the mantra of 'Har Ghar Swadeshi.'
