Expansion
The atmosphere of Indira Gandhi Pratishthan was different on Monday. Although exhibitions are often held in the establishment, but the Bhoomi Poojan ceremony was something special. Everyone was hopeful that the churning happening here would yield the nectar of a better future for the state. As soon as Prime Minister Narendra Modi entered the main hall here at 2.28 pm, the thunderous applause showed that investors are eager to join hands step by step on the path of development. The Bhoomi Pujan of development works involving investment of more than Rs 10 lakh crore further strengthened the confidence of investors.
In the same month last year, in the Global Investors Conference held in the capital, a blueprint was drawn to take the development of the state to a new level. This was such a brainstorming that took a whole year to achieve its result. What was the effect of this that now trends have started coming. The plans were seen taking shape in the Bhoomi Pujan ceremony held on Monday. This was the reason why the atmosphere looked different.
On one hand, at the main gate of the establishment, the artists of Faruahi folk dance of Ayodhya were adding charm to the event, while on the other hand, Rai dance of Jhansi was strongly representing its cultural heritage. As soon as the Prime Minister entered the establishment, new energy was infused among the artists. The eyes of not only the artists but also the investors waiting for the PM in the main hall of the establishment lit up. Representatives from other countries also participated in the program. As soon as the PM described UP as the growth engine of the country, everyone became enthusiastic. Similarly, Bhoomi Pujan worth more than Rs 10 lakh crore has truly stepped firmly on the path of progress.
Glimpse of the grandeur of the program in the exhibitions
The exhibitions organized here are reflecting the grandeur of the programme. Pandals representing every theme or project have been set up here. Ten big stalls set up in a single pandal are telling the story of the development of Artificial Intelligence, Textile, Medical Sector, Renewable Energy etc. While products made from bagasse are focusing on MSMEs, chicken and brass workmanship are also telling the prosperity of the state. At the same time, the high speed bike Moto GP is focusing on the speed of the state.
Investors said – expect cooperation from the government
Vivek Kumar, an investor from Delhi, says, our company is investing in UP. Looking at the atmosphere, it seems that the future of UP is bright. I am investing the money thinking that the investment will be worthwhile. I have full hope that the government will cooperate. Similarly, Rajiv Goyal, who came from Meerut, says, I am investing in the hotel industry. I am preparing a hotel chain in Ayodhya, Noida. Looking at the environment, it seems that my investment will bear fruits. At present UP has become a hub of tourism, due to this investment in hotel industry will be better. Deepa Singh, who came from Gorakhpur, says that everyone from PM to CM has made the atmosphere here better. My determination to invest has become stronger after watching the program.
The main pandal is giving testimony of better technology
The magnificent big pandal built at Indira Gandhi Pratishthan is testimony to the technology developing in UP. This pandal has been prepared from ship container sheet. It was given the form of a container in which the development story of UP has also been engraved in a better way. When new investors got information about new things, they were also introduced to many new technologies.
