Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday stressed that Kashi is emerging as a major medical hub for Purvanchal (eastern region), adding that medical treatment for which people had to go to Delhi and Mumbai earlier are now available here. Speaking on development works in Kashi in the past seven years during his visit to his parliamentary consitutuency, PM Modi said it is marching ahead on the development path while maintaining its original identity.
The prime minister said UP is also emerging as a leading investment destination in the country.
The main reason for it is the Yogi government’s focus on infrastructure, he said. Improvement in this area is not only making life easier here also help doing business, he said, referring to ongoing expressway projects. Mentioning the recent Union government decision of setting up a special fund of Rs 1 lakh crore for improving agriculture infrastructure, he said it will prove to be a step towards making the mandi system modern and well equipped.
Improving the system connected with government procurement and providing many more opportunities to farmers is a priority of the government and the record purchase of wheat and rice this year are its results, he said. Citing development works in the state, Modi said it is difficult to mention all of them and praised CM Yogi Adityanath’s leadership and dedication for it.
It is not as if there was a lack of funds or scheme before 2017 but hurdles were created in Lucknow in the efforts made by Delhi after 2014. Today, Yogiji is himself working hard and personally reviewing all development schemes, he added.
