Significance

Merging Indore, Ujjain, Dewas, and parts of Dhar district into a single metropolitan city will create a major economic hub in Madhya Pradesh. Indore, being a prominent commercial centre, will anchor the region, attracting businesses, industries and investments. This will foster economic growth and make the area a powerful engine for the state’s economy.

Ujjain’s historical significance as a key trade route between North India and the Deccan adds strategic value to the merger. By revitalising this ancient route with modern infrastructure, the region can enhance trade, facilitating access to southern and western markets. This will benefit local businesses and boost exports.

The merger will combine the industrial potential of Dewas, the commercial power of Indore, and the agricultural strengths of Ujjain, creating a more diverse and dynamic economy.

This larger metropolitan area will also become a focal point for attracting national and international investments which will contribute to long-term economic prosperity for Madhya Pradesh.
