The foundation has been laid for an electronic components and electronic circuit manufacturing project with an investment of approximately ₹7,000 crore. Similarly, the foundation has also been laid for a modern solar cell manufacturing unit at a cost of ₹8,200 crore,” the chief minister said.This will make Gautam Buddha Nagar a major centre for electronics and solar manufacturing. There was a time when this area was considered the most dangerous region of the state. People were afraid to come here after evening, he added.Sukhbir Singh, Co-founder of SAEL Industries, said, “With an initial investment of ₹8,200 crore, we are establishing a 5 GW solar cell and 5 GW solar module manufacturing facility in Jewar.
