Bengaluru: Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Wednesday batted for investments in Karnataka saying that the state is a leader in many sectors and has attractive policies to promote industries.

First in electrical maintenance, innovation, home to about seven plus auto Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) — more than seven of them are here and 50-plus auto component manufacturers are here,” Sitharaman said addressing the gathering at the launch of the three-day Global Investors’ Meet titled ‘Invest Karnataka’.
