With a resolve to build a new India, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath led a team of officials to Mumbai, the financial capital of India, asking them to invest in Uttar Pradesh because the world has started taking note of changes taking place in this state. “I ask all of you to contribute towards realizing Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ‘$5 trillion economy’ goal for India by investing in Uttar Pradesh, through which the path to prosperous self-reliant India passes,” Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said while addressing the country’s leading industrialists, representatives of financial, banking and industrial institutions, businessmen and investors.
The Chief Minister said that the state with the largest population in the country is working diligently to fulfill this resolution as it has potential, vision, and immense possibilities. “We are providing every necessary assistance and resource to the investors in our state and they must take advantage of this”, he said while throwing open the door of opportunities to the captains of the industries.
Showcasing Uttar Pradesh as an investment destination in the face of intense competition from other Indian states was in itself a challenge. It was the perseverance of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath that UP was able to get investment proposals of over Rs 22 lakh crore.
The investors from banking to the core sector and from film to the power sector – all showed interest in investment in Uttar Pradesh because of the leadership of Yogi that has transformed UP. The perception of change has come from the fact that the law and order situation in UP has changed, and this was accepted by the industrialists and members of the film fraternity during their interaction with the Chief Minister.
