&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;We are competing with three states including Gujarat and Odisha and are hopeful of making a breakthrough,  he said.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;

&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;As per reports, the state government has approved Assam Electronics Policy 2023 for attracting future investments in the sector. Earlier, the Assam cabinet had approved productivity linked incentives for the industry.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;CM Sarma added that the advanced states like Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat and Odisha have announced a policy for semiconductors.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;We have announced a policy where there will be a capital investment subsidy. With our new production-linked incentive policy, Assam will soon attract investments to manufacture semiconductors in the state,  he said.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
&#13;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:14px&quot;&gt;The chief minister further said, We have some positive vibes. Due to clean and pure water of river Brahmaputra, many industrialists have evinced interest.  &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;(KNN Bureau)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#13;
