UP GOVERNMENT WON’T ALLOW SECURITY OF TRADERS TO BE BREACHED: CM

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Saturday, while pointing out that the state has become a “preferred destination” for investors, said that the government would not allow the “security of traders and entrepreneurs to be breached”.

“No riots have taken place in the last five and a half years. The state is receiving huge investments, and employment opportunities are being generated. Now highways and expressways are being constructed in Uttar Pradesh. Uttar Pradesh has become completely ‘dangamukt’, ‘apradhmukt’,” Yogi said while launching several development projects worth Rs 267 crore in Bijnor.

“The government would not allow the security of traders and entrepreneurs in UP to be breached,” he added.

Citing the latest National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) report, the CM said that no communal riots took place under his regime, adding that the state is on the path of development. He also said that Uttar Pradesh was working tirelessly to achieve the goal of one district, one medical college.

Expressing satisfaction over the development works, the CM said, “I am happy to inform you that the work on the four-lane Bijnor-Moradabad Road has been completed at a cost of Rs 208 crore. Similarly, an amount of Rs 51.81 crore was made available for the widening and strengthening of Rehar, Kaharipur, Badigarh, and Surajnagar roads.”

The CM remarked that the government is carrying out development work in various sectors, including education, health, agriculture, and employment generation, on a priority basis.
