During the ribbon cutting ceremony, there was some chaos near the entrance gate as everyone wanted to enter the site. There are more than 27 halls with various exhibitions and pavilions for some of the Indian states where a showcase of opportunities available in each state is there.

Three major MoUs, worth over Rs 21,400 crore, were signed in the presence of Modi. The project intends to offer higher value to orange growers, generate gainful employment and benefit 5,000 farmers.
