"In all, 151 companies are going to investment Rs 2,700 crore in the state on the occasion of fourth Momentum Jharkhand groundbreaking ceremony which will take place in Deoghar on April 27," Mines and Industries Secretary Sunil Barnawal told the media.

Barnwal is also in charge of Principal Secretary to Jharkhand Chief Minister.
