| Viksit UP @2047: AI, biotech, green energy, and agritech to shape global identity | | | Early Times Report
LUCKNOW, Sept 14: Under the leadership of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, the Uttar Pradesh government is preparing a concrete action plan to realize the vision of "Viksit Uttar Pradesh - Samarth Uttar Pradesh @2047." The framework rests on three missions-Samagra Vikas (all-round development), Aarthik Netrutva (economic leadership), and Sanskritik Punarjagran (cultural renaissance)-and three themes of Arth Shakti, Srijan Shakti, and Jeevan Shakti.
The government aims to make Uttar Pradesh a $1 trillion economy by 2030 and a $6 trillion economy by 2047. To achieve this, special focus is being placed on future-oriented industries such as AI, biotech, green energy, and agritech. A blueprint is also being prepared across 12 key sectors, including agriculture, IT and emerging technology, health, education, industry, social welfare, rural and urban development, tourism, hospitality, livestock, sustainable development, and governance.
Before 2017, Uttar Pradesh was counted among the "Bimaru" states due to weak law and order, poor infrastructure, and lack of investor confidence. Most entrepreneurs migrated to other states. However, since 2017, the Yogi government has transformed the security landscape through police modernization, command-and-control centres, and Operation Conviction, which boosted conviction rates. This restored investor trust, leading to record investments of over ?45 lakh crore at the 2023 UP Global Investors Summit, of which ?15 lakh crore has already been grounded.
