The announcement of what the region’s government said was its first foreign investment comes after the central government said last week that Jammu and Kashmir had received record investment of $181m in the first 10 months of the 2022-23 fiscal year.
Emaar Properties CEO Amit Jain told reporters that the investment would have a ripple effect.
