Mr.
Adityanath described youth power as Uttar Pradesh’s greatest strength, adding, “the state’s youth are talented, hard-working and full of the determination to achieve something for the country and society.
The strength of Uttar Pradesh lies in the talent of its youth.
The government has taken strict action against the cheating mafia and recruitment mafia, and the state’s demographic dividend is being transformed into a ‘development engine’.” The CM further highlighted the improvement in law and order in U.P., under the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) rule.
“With this historic improvement in law and order, Uttar Pradesh has now transformed from Upadrav Pradesh (State of Unrest) to Utsav Pradesh (State of Celebrations).
Uttar Pradesh, once counted among the BIMARU states, is today playing the role of the ‘growth engine’ of the country’s economy.
By ending policy paralysis, the state has been established as a ‘dream destination’ for investment,” he said.
The Chief Minister added, “Today, our sisters and daughters can go to the market at any time, go alone for their studies, return home from work and fulfil their dreams.
Over the past 9 years, along with ensuring due respect for women’s power, they have also been given freedom from insecurity.” Mr.
Adityanath further said, “We are building an Uttar Pradesh where there is heritage as well as the technology of the future.
Where the pride of culture and the pace of modernity will move together, the roots of tradition will remain strong, and the wings of development will be seen touching the sky.”
