Dimapur, Aug. 11 (EMN): Nagaland CSR and Investment Conclave 2022 will be held on August 22 and 23, the Investment and Development Authority of Nagaland (IDAN) announced on Thursday.
Minister of Finance and Corporate Affairs, Nirmala Sitharaman will attend the event, along with Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio, secretaries and senior officials from the corporate affairs Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) and government of Nagaland.
Sitharaman had earlier confirmed to attend the Nagaland Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Investment Conclave and Bankers’ Meet on July 4 and 5, but later postponed citing “unforeseen circumstances”.
