We have, and will continue to, strive towards excellence and fostering a culture of cutting-edge innovation. What truly inspires us is the impact that we have on communities worldwide.””Rooted in India, we are also heavily invested in not just taking our expertise to other countries, but in the process, also contributing to the Indian economy. We will continue to work on projects on behalf of the Government of India to extend our expertise to countries in need, with an aim to ensure sustainable and equitable development to improve lives of millions across the world. We are focussed on power projects within the country. Infrastructure projects, we feel, will not just generate employment but also support economic development,” he added.
The ongoing projects for the company including construction of 409 health posts covering large parts of Zambia has received tremendous appreciation from local communities and from the Zambian High Commission in India.
The initiative is a means to provide access to cost-effective and quality health services as close to communities as possible under their universal health coverage scheme. This project comes under the EXIM Bank of India’s Line of Credit for infrastructure projects in the south African country.

In the next few years, while India continues to remain a focus market, JOL is looking to further expand its footprints worldwide augmenting its position as the leading Indian-Global player in infrastructure design and engineering. It aims to strengthen India’s position on global map as an enabler of high-impact, innovative and quality construction and infrastructure projects bringing in cutting-edge technology for sustainable development.
