The work towards this direction had started in 2009.Gadkari later played a key role in setting up the Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in Nagpur. After winning the 2014 Lok Sabha elections, Gadkari became an MP from Nagpur and eventually a cabinet minister in the Narendra Modi-led government, after which he focused on working on his dream project.Gradually, some big companies showed interest in the MIHAN project. Many companies came forward for investment.Air India has provided jobs to at least 4,500 people in Nagpur, HCL has employed around 2,500 people and Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) has given employment to 7,500 people. Similarly, investment opportunities of more than 170 companies have provided employment opportunities.Providing details to IANS about employment provided by the companies, Nitin Gadkari's office said that 54,868 people got jobs in Nagpur in the last six years. These jobs were created following the establishment of industries and development projects in Nagpur.A total of 36,407 jobs have been generated in SEZ and 16,162 in the non-SEZ area.
