Banerjee landed at the city airport around 7 PM and expressed her satisfaction over the outcomes of her trip. "It was a very good trip. I have not ever seen such a successful tour in my life. I am happy that I could do so much for Bengal," she told reporters upon arrival.

The chief minister also revealed that several meetings were organised by FICCI, an Indian Chamber of Commerce, during which major Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) were signed. These MoUs are expected to pave way for substantial investments in West Bengal, thereby boosting its economy.

Promising Offers from Spain and Dubai

In a subsequent post on social media platform X, Banerjee asserted that she had returned with serious offers for investments and partnerships from both Spain and Dubai. This is indicative of potential international collaborations which can significantly contribute to the development projects within West Bengal.

"Back to Kolkata with serious offers for investments and partnerships from Spain and Dubai. Follow-up overseas delegations will come shortly and during BGBS in November for carrying forward what we started," she wrote on X.

Gratitude towards Supporters

Banerjee also expressed gratitude towards all those who played instrumental roles in making her tour fruitful. She thanked Indian Embassies, Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce & Industry (FICCI), Indian Chamber Of Commerce (ICC), industry-business delegates accompanying her, and the media fraternity for their concerted efforts towards a common mission.

"I thank the Indian Embassies, CII, FICCI, ICC, accompanying industry-business delegates and the media fraternity for working hard towards a common mission. Jai Biswa Bangla! Jai Hind!", she said in her post.

Conclusion

In conclusion, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's recent tour of Spain and UAE seems to have been highly successful in terms of attracting foreign investments for West Bengal. The signing of major MoUs during meetings organised by FICCI is a promising sign of potential economic growth in the state. With follow-up overseas delegations expected shortly and during BGBS in November to continue what has been initiated on this trip, there is much anticipation regarding the future developments that these international collaborations will bring about.
