          Patna,(BiharTimes): Bihar’s deputy chief minister Sushil Kumar Modi   reiterated that the three-day Global Meet to be inaugurated on Friday (Feb 17)   is not an investors’ meet as is being generally   misunderstood. Though over   1000 dignitaries from India and abroad, including industrialists, would be   attending the meet not a single paise of investment would come up for discussion   nor any Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) would be signed.  |  Global meets   are generally held for alluring investments. Opposition parties are now   questioning if there will be no investment then what is the need for such   jamboree in which crores would be spent. Since not a   single paise of investments had come after the Global Meet of the past the state   government is making its stand clear even before the start of this latest   one. Leader of   opposition in the state Assembly Abdul Bari Siddiqui asked if it is not an   investors’ meet then why is the state government machinery so much involved in   the wastage of money.  CPI ML   general secretary, Dipankar Bhattacharya, said that the Global Meet is being   organized for the sake of sheer propaganda.
