Srinagar: Despite the Modi regime\u2019s repeated claims of massive investment inflows into Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir after the revocation of Article 370, official data has revealed that the territory continues to attract the lowest Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in India.<\/p>\n

According to figures presented in the Indian Parliament, occupied Jammu and Kashmir received only INR 10.52 crore in FDI equity inflows since 2020, far below the average at Indian level and significantly less than smaller states and union territories in India.<\/p>\n

Observers said the figures expose New Delhi\u2019s false narrative of economic revival and global investor confidence in the occupied territory after its special status was unilaterally abrogated on August 5, 2019. Despite the much-hyped \u201cGlobal Investors Summit\u201d and repeated claims of thousands of crore rupees in proposed investments, ground realities show negligible industrial activity and no major foreign projects taking shape.<\/p>\n

Local traders and business leaders blame the unstable political climate, military occupation, communication blackouts, and lack of local representation for deterring investors. \u201cNo one wants to invest where basic democratic rights are suspended and the situation is militarized,\u201d one Srinagar-based industrialist remarked.<\/p>\n

Economic analysts say the data is a clear indictment of the Modi regime\u2019s propaganda that the abrogation of Article 370 would bring prosperity to Kashmir. Instead, the territory faces deepening unemployment, stifled local businesses, and economic stagnation under continued repression.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
