KOLKATA: It's time to say goodbye to 2024 and welcome 2025. The year 2024 has been marked by several significant events in Bengal ranging from a massive victory by the ruling Trinamool Congress (TMC) in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections and subsequent Assembly bypolls, despite controversies to the inauguration of a Rs 426 crore development centre by Infosys.
Bengal registered a significant economic expansion with its Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP) projected to surge by 10.5 per cent in the 2024-25 fiscal, significantly surpassing the national average of 7.32 per cent and reinforcing its position as the fourth-largest economy in India, as state industries minister Shashi Panja had recently claimed. It was also claimed that the manufacturing sector played a crucial role in this upward trajectory during the year, achieving a robust growth rate of 7.8 per cent, exceeding the national average.
