After holding roadshows abroad, the Uttar Pradesh government organised a roadshow in Delhi on Friday as part of its mission to develop the state into a $1-trillion economy through the Global Investors’ Summit from February 10 to 12 in the capital city.
Leading industrialists from India and abroad participated in the roadshow organised at the Oberoi Hotel in Delhi. Industrialists signed memorandums of understanding (MoU) worth thousands of crores of rupees.
The investors, who came to participate in the event, appreciated the opportunities offered by the transformed state of UP. During the roadshow, Rajeev Chanan, Managing Director at Umeandus Technologies India Private Limited, said, "We are bringing more and more investment to UP as it has huge development potential. The state is making tremendous progress in infrastructure, railway connectivity and airway connectivity. The entire focus of the UP government is on development."
Lava International’s Chairman Hari Om Rai said that after coming to UP he realised that UP was the only state that was able to attract industrialists on a very large scale. “The changing atmosphere in UP today under the leadership of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has boosted the confidence of the business community and industrialists. A lot of work has been done in the field of infrastructure in UP. Roads and electricity are crucial for setting up any industry and we are happy that the UP government is doing commendable work in this direction,” he said.
Prestigious group’s Chairman Hemant Sateja said that the work which could be done in 75 years was being done now. “Earlier it was impossible to think about the network of expressways and defence industrial corridors, but now they are being prepared under the administration of UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. The way the law and order situation has improved in UP has not only strengthened the confidence of people, but also of investors like us. UP is moving towards making a big contribution in the development of the country,” he said.
