Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy chose to address head-on any concerns foreign businesses may have about investing in his 10-week old government, admitting that while the state lacked "big metros like a Hyderabad, Bengaluru or Chennai", it offered a stable administration backed by a decisive mandate. Mr Reddy was speaking at a day-long diplomatic outreach summit in the capital Amaravati on Friday, which was attended by delegates from 30 countries and organised in partnership with the external affairs ministry.
