Uttar Pradesh has been on a forward march like never before ever since Yogi Adityanath was sworn in as Chief Minister on March 19, 2017. In the nearly three years that he has been at the helm, Yogi Adityanath has unveiled a slew of development projects that have been benefitting the state’s farmers, youth, women, and the girl child. The logistic schemes are poised to make UP a $1 trillion economy–in keeping with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of making India a $5 trillion economy by 2024.
From his very first historic step of loan waiver to farmers, taken at the first cabinet meeting held on April 4, 2017, Yogi Adityanath has kept Uttar Pradesh and its people at the forefront of his every move.
From holding groundbreaking ceremonies (GBC) to take forward ambitious investment proposals in various sectors, pushing ahead firmly with the Defence Industrial Corridor project – to realise PM Modi’s vision of making UP one of the biggest defence hardware manufacturing hubs in the country, stressing improving school education through 'School Chalo Abhiyan', providing long hours of electricity to every nook and cranny of the state, giving homes to the homeless and deprived, building expressways and highways, improving health facilities, cleaning rivers–Yogi Adityanath has ensured that UP is taking rapid strides on the path of development.
