The 30th CII–Partnership Summit commenced in Visakhapatnam with remarkable grandeur, drawing global investors eager to forge collaborations with the Andhra Pradesh government led by Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu. While the signing of major MoUs and the presence of international delegates dominated headlines, the conspicuous absence of Deputy Chief Minister and Jana Sena Party (JSP) president Pawan Kalyan at the inaugural session became a key talking point.
Despite his non-attendance, the state government did not appear to sideline Pawan Kalyan; his photograph was prominently featured in full-page government advertisements released to mark the summit. Interestingly, his JSP cabinet colleagues—Civil Supplies Minister Nadendla Manohar and Tourism Minister Kandula Durgesh—did participate in the event, adding further intrigue to Pawan Kalyan’s decision to stay away.
Speculation suggests that Pawan Kalyan may have opted out of the summit as his portfolios—Panchayat Raj, Environment, and Forests—have limited relevance to investment promotion. However, this raises questions about why he asked Nadendla Manohar, whose civil supplies portfolio also lacks direct investment linkage, to attend. Durgesh’s presence, on the other hand, carries merit given tourism-related opportunities showcased at the summit.
Observers believe that Chief Minister Naidu certainly extended an invitation to Pawan Kalyan, but the latter may have chosen not to be perceived as simply another cabinet colleague amid praise directed at Naidu and Nara Lokesh. Analysts argue that his absence may have cost him an opportunity to gain visibility among global industry leaders and to understand firsthand how such high-profile events contribute to state development.
Given the attendance of dignitaries such as Vice President of India C. P. Radhakrishnan and Union Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal, Pawan Kalyan’s presence might have further strengthened the image of collective leadership within the Andhra Pradesh government. It may also have bolstered his engagement with global investors—a factor that could prove valuable as he grows in stature within the administration.
