Under PM Modi's guidance, Uttar Pradesh has gone from 'BIMARU' to developed state: CM Yogi Adityanath
Uttar Pradesh has moved from a BIMARU state to the path of a developed state, said Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Tuesday, adding that in the coming years, it will become the “growth engine” of the country.
Addressing the FICCI’s National Executive Committee Meeting (NECM) in Lucknow, Adityanath said, “After 1985-86 Uttar Pradesh saw a long period of darkness in terms of development… The perception of the nation and world about Uttar Pradesh became very different… There was an identity crisis before the youth, businessmen and citizens here… Today, under the guidance and leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Uttar Pradesh has managed to emerge from the darkness and from being a ‘BIMARU’ state towards becoming a developed state…”
