With a view to attracting investors and establishing industries in the state, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has said it will soon implement new industrial investment policy.

“The state government will solve problems pertaining to state entrepreneurs on priority. To attract investment and ensure establishment of industries, a new industrial investment policy will be implemented soon”, the Chief Minister said while addressing officers during presentation of infrastructure and industrial development department here on Thursday.

“Single window system will be adopted to solve problems of investors. Land acquisition for establishment of new industries should be done by taking farmers in confidence,” he added. Emphasising on simplifying norms, he said rules and procedures should be simple and transparent, so that necessary clearance should be given in less time for setting up of industries. Asking officers to work seriously on industrial development, Yogi said it was necessary to “make atmosphere of investment in the state”.

On former Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav’s dream project Agra-Lucknow expressway, Yogi said the remaining work should be completed by May, and work on Purvanchal Expressway should be carried forward. He asked officers to work on construction of airports at Agra, Jewar in Gautam Buddha Nagar, and decide on this to proceed further with the Centre.
