<h1>Investment facilitation: states urged to ramp up infrastructure-led growth through capital spending and asset monetization.</h1> The Centre urged states to accelerate investment under an infrastructure-led growth approach, backed by higher capital outlay and a time linked incentive scheme that makes states eligible for incremental borrowing upon meeting quarterly capital expenditure targets. The National Monetization Pipeline presently excludes state assets, prompting encouragement for states to monetize assets.
