New Delhi: Strong build-up of infrastructure and zero-tolerance for law breakers in Uttar Pradesh has put it on the path of rapid progress, said Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya.
He said that Uttar Pradesh is fast becoming the preferred destination for investment and is consistently marching ahead on the path of development.
“With CM Yogi’s consistent efforts and no-nonsense approach on crime and criminals, law & order situation has considerably improved. Earlier, the goons used to run riot, now they are frightened of govt action,” said Deputy CM on last day of the 3-day webinar session for Purvanchal.
Highlighting the series of highways under construction, Maurya said, “We will soon be connected to all the metros of the country through Purvanchal, Bundelkhand and Ganga Expressway. The world will be accessible to us through Green Field International Airport like Jewar, Kushinagar, Ayodhya International and other airports.”
UP jumps to 2nd rank in Ease of Doing Business
Deputy CM said that because of improved business environment, better infrastructure and investment friendly policies, Uttar Pradesh has jumped to second rank in ease of doing business and emerged as a favourite destination for investors.
Mr Maurya said that after coming to power, BJP government has constructed 67 highways till date.
“We are also making eco-friendly roads. Herbal road and roads made of plastic and other waste are proof of this. We will connect each lanes with the main road nearby. To motivate the people, roads are being built in the name of martyrs, topper students and famous people,” he further said.
