02 September 2021: Uttar Pradesh Government has allotted 1,100 plots to apparel, toy manufacturers along with micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and other industries in the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) area, Industrial Development Minister, Satish Mahana said at an ASSOCHAM virtual conference.
“Today, I feel very proud to share that during past 4-4.5 years, Uttar Pradesh has emerged as the most preferred investment destination,” said Mahana addressing the ASSOCHAM Members in a virtual conference on ‘Building State Capabilities for Global Value Chain-Uttar Pradesh’.

Highlighting the industry-friendly policies of UP, Mahana said, “Trust between the government and the industry is of utmost important, while we are facilitating all support, still if you have any concerns, I will request you to approach me and my department anytime and we will help resolve all the issues.”

He also said that it is really advantageous for Uttar Pradesh that both the Dedicated Freight Corridors – Eastern Dedicated Freight Corridor and the Western Dedicated Freight Corridor will pass through the state.

He said that state government had designed its new industry policies based on the interactions with industry leaders and incorporated most of their suggestions and recommendations. “Even during the Pandemic whenever it was felt that there is a need to tweak the policies as per the situation, we did that.”

“I would like to request the industry that to ensure better coordination, they should also engage with relevant departments for issues related to different sectors be it power, environment, tax and others because we take up these issues at our level and bring to their notice but simultaneously if you also engage with the concerned departments, it will help resolve the issues as early as possible,” said the Minister.
