Gautam Buddh Nagar buzzed with optimism as In-Charge Minister Brijesh Singh unveiled a detailed report on nine years of governance achievements in a packed Collectorate hall. Attendees included key legislators like Narendra Bhati (MLC), Dhirendra Singh (Jewar MLA), Tejpal Nagar (Dadri MLA), alongside local leaders Amit Chaudhary, Abhishek Sharma, and Mahesh Chauhan.
Drawing parallels to national leadership, Singh praised PM Modi’s guidance and CM Yogi’s stewardship for delivering unprecedented governance reforms since 2017. This systemic shift transformed Uttar Pradesh from a backward state into a beacon of progress, he emphasized.
Security metrics stood out: Over Rs 4,000 crore in mafia assets neutralized, 53 crime gangs eradicated, and 977 NSA invocations. Police strength grew by 2.19 lakh recruits, with emergency responses now averaging six minutes via UP-112.
Social welfare initiatives painted a picture of upliftment. Free food for 15 crore citizens helped 6 crore escape poverty. Health coverage via 5.60 crore Ayushman cards protected 9 crore individuals. Notably, 1.06 crore women joined self-help groups, producing 18 lakh ‘Lakhpati Didis’ who earn lakhs annually.
Farming thrived, with record 737 lakh MT foodgrains and Rs 3.15 lakh crore disbursed to sugarcane growers. PM Kisan aided 3.12 crore farmers. Employment surged with 9 lakh jobs and gadgets for 49.86 lakh youth, complemented by guarantee-free loans for startups.
The infrastructure boom includes sprawling expressways, new airports, metro lines, Ganga Expressway, semiconductors, and rapid rail. Cultural landmarks like Kashi Corridor and Ayodhya, plus Mahakumbh 2025, elevated tourism globally.
Economically, GSDP jumped from Rs 13 lakh crore to Rs 36 lakh crore, eyeing $1 trillion status by 2030. Singh positioned UP as India’s growth locomotive, urging continued momentum in this development journey.
