He said that UP had been facing the brunt of backwardness ever since India gained Independence due to the neglect of Congress and Samajwadi Party governments in the state, but things are changing rapidly now. “Earlier the British ignored this region and then after Independence the governments of the day only used the vote bank of UP, but never bothered to focus on its economy and development. But ever since the BJP government came to power, we have taken a vow to change all parameters of development.

UP’s economy is now booming, jobs are being created and social infrastructure has been strengthened. India cannot be a developed nation without growth in UP. UP will be a 1 trillion dollar economy within three years and make India stronger". Focusing on the transformation of eastern UP, the CM said that earlier there was huge migration of youth to the metros but now due to better law and order and industry-friendly policies, the business community wants to invest in UP. “Top industrialists are investing in UP. This not only gives the economy a boom but also stops migration as youth can find jobs closer to home. This has stopped migration and flight of talent from UP," Yogi said. He said that in Gorakhpur alone 50,000 youth have got jobs in the past nine years. “In fact, big industrialists say that they want to set up factories in UP as the manpower here is skilled and dedicated. The double engine government of the BJP in UP and centre has led to all-round development and growth of UP," he said. “Now as youth has stopped migrating to other states, the factories there suffer a manpower problem!" पूर्वी उत्तर प्रदेश में निवेश आ रहा है और अर्थव्यवस्था भी उसी तेजी के साथ आगे बढ़ी है…अगले तीन वर्ष के अंदर UP $1 ट्रिलियन की इकोनॉमी की दिशा में आगे बढ़ेगा… pic.twitter.com/zWOLiz2lBu — Yogi Adityanath (@myogiadityanath) August 11, 2026 He said as part of his government’s policies to promote local industry, they have started One District, One Product scheme, wherein the local craft or product of a district is given incentives and funds to boost production and jobs.
