India is the world’s third largest energy consumer, and the country saw a new export merchandising record of ₹30 lakh crore last year, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Friday as he spoke at the ‘Ground Breaking Ceremony: 3.0 of the UP Investors Summit’. “Agreements related to investment of more than ₹80 thousand crore in UP have been signed here.
This record investment will create thousands of new employment opportunities in the state,” PM Modi said, adding that “nobody can stop the development” in the state.
The prime minister, who is a parliamentarian from Varanasi, invited the investors to the temple town. “I am the MP of Kashi, so I would like to take some time out to see my Kashi. Kashi has changed a lot.
Such a city, with its ancient strength, can be decorated in a new look, it is a living example of the power of Uttar Pradesh,” he underlined.
The “double-engine government” of the BJP has been working on infrastructure and investment in the state.
“It shows the growing growth story of Uttar Pradesh along with India. The youth power of Uttar Pradesh has that power that will give new flight, new heights to your dreams and resolutions.
The hard work, strength, understanding, dedication of the youth of Uttar Pradesh will fulfill all your dreams and resolutions,” PM Modi said.
