Jobs open for lakhs of youth in 6 years
He said that this is the work of our last 5 years. If you see the results of the way entrepreneurs have taken interest in UP in the next 6 years, then I believe that UP will be successful in providing job facilities to lakhs of youth. The Chief Minister said that if you see the overall growth rate of Uttar Pradesh, it is running between 13 to 14. Even though there is a recession going on in the world, we have a good growth rate, but I believe that there is no possibility of industrial investment only in UP.
Emphasis on bringing agriculture rate to double digit
CM Yogi Adityanath said in the interview that especially we have 11 percent of the country’s most fertile land. Uttar Pradesh produces more than 30 percent food grains in the agricultural land of the country. If we try, we will be able to bring the agriculture rate to double digit. MSME unit is present in Uttar Pradesh. We encouraged him a little and he more than doubled the exports of UP.
Every area of UP is moving forward with better connectivity
CM Yogi said that the infrastructure that UP has is connected to NCR, but to connect the eastern part, to connect Bundelkhand, the connectivity to connect the western and central parts, the construction of the airport which took place in the last 6 years. Within a year, the way inter-state tax activity has been strengthened in UP, water-way number 1 is present near UP today to connect with the eastern port. The network of express highway has been laid in the last few years. All these things are giving opportunity to advance the economy of UP in a time bound manner and achieve its goal.
