Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s strategic outreach in Singapore has reaped rich dividends, with investment intents nearing ₹1 lakh crore and MoUs inked for ₹60,000 crore. This windfall aligns perfectly with the state’s roadmap to a $1 trillion economy by the end of the decade.
Addressing reporters amid a whirlwind itinerary, Yogi attributed the success to UP’s open ecosystem. ‘Global investors have real-time insights into our progress, driving these commitments,’ he noted. The delegation’s Singapore leg featured relentless engagements starting early morning, extending late, alongside a Japan visit.
In high-stakes talks, Yogi met Singapore’s leadership elite and over 100 business leaders. Discussions with fintech heads built on existing investments, including in flagship projects like the Ganga Expressway – set to be the nation’s longest.
A perceptual revolution in investor sentiment toward UP was evident, the CM observed. Restricted-access tours to cutting-edge facilities offered blueprints for Jewar Airport’s expansion into cargo and MRO services, areas where Singapore excels and global airlines flock.
Skilling infrastructure visits resonated deeply, validating UP’s ambitious Patel Employment Zones aimed at district-wide skill development and job creation. Collaborations here hold immense promise.
Backed by PM Modi’s transformative vision, UP has surged in infrastructure, logistics, and social sectors over recent years, earning worldwide acclaim. The Indian High Commission’s advocacy amplified UP’s pitch in diverse fields from tourism to tech.
As these investments materialize, Uttar Pradesh stands poised to redefine India’s growth narrative, cementing its role as an economic powerhouse.
