UP govt to set up Invest UP offices in three metro cities

Lucknow, Apr 17 (UNI) In a push towards transforming Uttar Pradesh into a 1 trillion dollar economy, the state government is set to establish Invest UP offices in three of India's major metro cities, including New Delhi, Mumbai and Bengaluru, official sources said here on Friday.
Sources said that the initiative is part of the state's vision to enhance investor outreach, streamline investment processes and showcase the state’s progressive industrial policies and achievements.
Sources said that the planned offices will serve as dedicated hubs to facilitate direct communication with potential investors, resolve their queries in real time and promote UP's investor-friendly environment. "By creating a strong on-ground presence in these key economic centres, the government aims to build an accessible and responsive support network for businesses considering investment in UP. This will also create lakhs of employment opportunities," they said.
Sources said that under Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's leadership, UP is on the path of becoming a strong economic force while also playing a key role in achieving the goal of Viksit Bharat. "The state government’s recent decision to set up Invest UP offices in major Indian cities will be a major step toward turning the state into an investment hub," they said.
Sources said that in a recent high-level meeting, the CM said that the goal of opening Invest UP offices in different cities is to promote investment in the state. These offices will help solve investors' problems and introduce them to the state’s business-friendly environment.
He had said, "Our government will make every effort to ensure that investors see UP as a top investment destination."
Sources said that the Invest UP office in New Delhi will act as a strong link with the central government, foreign embassies, industry bodies and investors. "The Mumbai office will connect the state with financial institutions, multinational companies and private investors. Meanwhile, the Bengaluru office will focus on attracting technology companies, startups and innovation-based investors," they said.
Sources said that these offices will not only encourage investment but also help grow knowledge-based industries in the state, making UP more industrially self-reliant. "Due to these consistent efforts by the Yogi government, UP is now counted among the top investment destinations in India," they said.
