Jharkhand not to implement FDI in multi-brand retail: Arjun Munda

RANCHI: Jharkhand will not implement FDI in multi-brand retail, Chief Minister Arjun Munda said today.

"I have spoken to all our coalition partners and we are all of the opinion that FDI will not be implemented in the state," Munda said.

Munda, who heads a coalition government led by BJP, said this while addressing a function organised by the Federation of Jharkhand Chamber and Industries here.

Though the BJP has been against FDI in multi-brand retail from the very beginning, Munda said, the Jharkhand government took time to talk to coalition partners on the issue.
