Shah said, Yogi Adityanath has improved law and order situation, which was the biggest hurdle in investments in the state. It’s not until law and order is improved that investments would come. He said, before the 2022 assembly election, UP would become the No.1 state in the country in terms of infrastructure and development. He added “I can guarantee the state government’s focus on a host of sectors, particularly small scale industries. I come from Gujarat which has been holding investors’ summits successfully. But the speed with which UP government has grounded investment pledges has surprised me,” Shah told the host of industry captains. The Centre has set an aim of turning India into a $5 trillion economy, for which UP will have to play a crucial role. Just like the road to Prime Minister’s chair passes through UP, the goal of achieving $5 trillion economy also passes through UP. We have already laid the foundation to achieve this target, he said. Recalling the Vajpayee era, Shah said the country was 11th in global economy ratings. The situation did not improve during the UPA government. In last five years, India has moved to 6th position. When BJP came to power in 2014, then PM Narendra Modi began concentrating on a host of sectors. “Modi ji ne kaha tha pehle jo sarkarein aayi thi woh sarkar chalane ke liye aayi thi..hum desh ko badalne ke liye sarkar chalayenge (Earlier, political parties would form a government for the sake of running a government. We formed government to change the country and the people’s perception about it,” Shah said.
