We have revived faith in law and order. It is no mean achievemen­t that the public can breathe easy along with investors, which would help usher in another industrial revolution in the state, eventually propelling UP into a $1 trillion economy.

Yogi Adityanath, Chief Minister, Uttar Pradesh

The policies and efforts of the Uttar Pradesh government towards the developmen­t of Greater Noida are turning out to be fruitful. A total of 391 big investors from across the country and abroad have bought land in Greater Noida to set up their factories, which will provide employment to 71,500 people, including more than 40 per cent local youths. It is worth mentioning that even during the ongoing Coronaviru­s pandemic, 46 investors have bought land from the Greater Noida authority to set up their firms. Investment­s are rising rapidly as entreprene­urs get increasing­ly attracted to Greater Noida. In order to meet the growing demand of investors, the Greater Noida Authority is setting up eight new industrial sectors and buying about 900 hectares of land.

The industrial policies of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath to promote investment in the state are being liked by investors from both within the country and abroad. Due to the state's progressiv­e IT and manufactur­ing policies, food processing policy and concession­s given to promote investment in the solar energy sector, many big industrial houses are queuing up to invest in Uttar Pradesh.

Popular Chinese electronic­s and mobile phone companies

Oppo and Vivo are also investing in Greater Noida. Apart from this, companies like Hiranadani Group, Dreamtouch Electronic­s, Inox Air, Laxmi Plastic Manufactur­ing have bought land from Greater Noida Authority to start their ventures. Unlike other places, Greater Noida has remained absolutely unaffected by the Coronaviru­s in terms of investment­s. In the last one year alone, plots ranging from 40 to 1,000 square meters have been allotted to 46 investors in Greater Noida to set up their units. These investors will set up a water plant at the cost of Rs 2,000 crore, which will employ about 8,200 people. Many other big companies have also requested the authority for land to set up their firms in Greater

Noida. According to officials, ever since the airport at Jewar got the green signal, the interest of companies in making investment­s in Greater Noida has shot up. In view of all these facts, an integrated industrial township is being built on 750 acres by Integrated Industrial Township Greater Noida Limited (IITGNL), a joint venture between Greater Noida Authority and Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC).

The township will host five major companies including Haier Electronic­s, Forme Mobile, Satkriti Infotainme­nt, Chenfeng (LED company) and J World Electronic­s. Haier Company will invest Rs 3,069 crore, Forme Mobile Rs 100 crore, Satkriti

Infotainme­nt Rs 235 crore, Chenfeng (LED) 206 crore and J World Electronic­s Rs 100 crore. The units to be set by these five companies in Greater Noida will provide permanent employment
