Highlights Inclusive Growth and Economic Prosperity at Agra Event
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath affirmed on Friday that the "new" India under Prime Minister Narendra Modi ensures security, prosperity, and equal opportunities for all, without any discrimination or appeasement.
Addressing a gathering in Agra during a loan-distribution ceremony under the Mukhyamantri Yuva Udyami Vikas Abhiyan, Adityanath emphasized India's rapid progress and growing global stature.
"The world is witnessing the strength of Uttar Pradesh and India today. Under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership, India has scaled unprecedented heights of development over the past decade. We are now seeing a new India, a remarkable blend of culture and prosperity, heritage and progress, faith and livelihood," said Adityanath.
Security, Prosperity Without Discrimination
The Chief Minister firmly reiterated the government's policy of inclusive development, asserting:
"In this new India, there's no discrimination against anyone. Security and prosperity are for everyone, and opportunities for growth are equally accessible. However, there will be no appeasement of anyone."
Maha Kumbh as a Symbol of Inclusive Development
Adityanath cited the recent Maha Kumbh in Prayagraj, attended by over 66 crore devotees, as an example of India's inclusive growth model, inspired by Prime Minister Modi’s vision of "Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas."
"The Maha Kumbh at the Triveni Sangam, confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and mythical Saraswati rivers, illustrated the true essence of inclusive development. It demonstrated not only security and cleanliness but also provided substantial employment opportunities," he stated.
Highlighting the economic significance of religious tourism, Adityanath shared impressive figures:
"We invested Rs 7,500 crore in the Maha Kumbh, and Uttar Pradesh reaped economic benefits amounting to Rs 3.5 lakh crore. Visitors departed with deep reverence for Uttar Pradesh and our Sanatan culture."
Panch Teerth Corridors Boost Economy and Faith
The Chief Minister further noted the significance of the Panch Teerth corridors in the state, describing them as pillars of spiritual devotion and economic growth.
"The Panch Teerth corridors have become symbols of faith and economic prosperity. Nowhere else in the world can one witness such harmony between religious faith and economic development," Adityanath concluded.
