CM Yogi spells out UP’s transformation, hails PRAGATI

The transformation of Uttar Pradesh from a bottleneck state to a breakthrough state has happened because of technology-based platforms like PRAGATI (Pro-Active Governance and Timely Implementation), Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said on Tuesday. Addressing a press conference in Lucknow, Adityanath said his government is now acting not just as a facilitator, but as an accelerator, speeding up projects. He said that Uttar Pradesh has the country's largest infrastructure portfolio with 330 projects worth Rs 10,48,000 crore, which include family, power, urban infrastructure, health and industrial development. In terms of delivery, Rs 2,37,000 crore worth 128 projects have already been commissioned. Rs 8,11,202 crore worth of projects are going forward as per the target... Roads and railways helped UP in becoming a transport and logistics hub, he said and added that in UP, Rs 4,19,000 worth of 65 big projects are in progress, out of which 26 projects are already commissioned, and 39 others are at different stages of progress.

The Chief Minister further said that PRAGATI has strengthened the Team India spirit and with coordination between central and state governments, the focus is now on solutions, not just problems. “Before 2014, projects were approved but not completed on time but today, with every project’s foundation stone laying, a completion timeline is set, and regular reviews are ensured,” CM Yogi said, showering praise on PM Modi’s focussed and result-oriented leadership.
