Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is leading an exciting push to turn the state into a powerhouse by 2047. The government’s new action plan, called Viksit Uttar Pradesh – Samarth Uttar Pradesh @2047, focuses on building a strong economy, vibrant culture, and all-round growth. It’s all about creating jobs, boosting innovation, and making UP a top player in India’s development story.
The plan revolves around three key missions: Samagra Vikas for overall development, Aarthik Netrutva for economic leadership, and Sanskritik Punarjagran for cultural revival. It highlights three big themes—Arth Shakti (economic power), Srijan Shakti (creative energy), and Jeevan Shakti (life force)—to drive real change.
Big dreams are in the air: UP wants to hit a USD 1 trillion economy by 2030 and skyrocket to USD 6 trillion by 2047. To make this happen, the state is zeroing in on cutting-edge sectors like artificial intelligence (AI), biotechnology, green energy, and agritech. A detailed blueprint covers 12 vital areas, including agriculture, IT and emerging technologies, health, education, industry, social welfare, rural and urban development, tourism, hospitality, livestock, sustainable development, and governance.
Since Yogi Adityanath took charge in 2017, UP has revamped its security setup. Police modernization, command-and-control centers, and Operation Conviction have jacked up conviction rates, making the state safer. This shift rebuilt investor confidence, drawing a whopping Rs 45 lakh crore in pledges at the 2023 UP Global Investors Summit. Already, Rs 15 lakh crore of that has turned into real projects on the ground.
To lure global giants, UP rolled out a Global Capability Centre (GCC) policy. This aims to transform cities like Noida and Lucknow into magnets for Fortune 500 companies. With perks like land support, tax breaks, and top-notch infrastructure, the state is creating high-skill jobs in R&D, data analytics, and cybersecurity. No wonder UP is emerging as India’s next big investment hotspot.
Looking ahead, UP is betting big on future industries such as AI, biotech, renewable energy, agritech, quantum tech, cybersecurity, and the metaverse. AI will supercharge productivity across sectors, while renewable energy and green tech will spark new manufacturing hubs and tons of jobs. Biotech and health-tech parks will position UP as a leader in pharmaceuticals and medical research. In farming, agritech and vertical farming innovations will hike farmers’ incomes and fuel rural growth.
Experts say this mix of high-value services, green manufacturing, and agritech reforms will propel UP toward that USD 6 trillion goal. GCCs and IT-AI hubs will boost services exports, renewable energy and e-mobility clusters will ramp up manufacturing and trade, and agriculture processing will strengthen rural economies. Plus, biotech and medical R&D will open doors to specialized jobs and exports.
The Yogi government’s vision puts employment front and center. GCCs and IT hubs will create high-paying opportunities, while renewable energy projects, smart city builds, and supply chains generate millions of mid- and low-skill jobs. In villages, agritech and cold chain initiatives will offer local work, cutting down migration to cities. Skill development programs and public-private partnerships will make all this doable and sustainable.
To reach USD 6 trillion by 2047, UP needs a steady 16% annual growth rate. This will lift per capita income sharply and bump the state’s share in India’s economy to about 20%. Success hinges on nonstop private and public investments, building industry clusters, nurturing talent, and keeping a secure environment for business. With this roadmap, Uttar Pradesh is set to shine as a model of progress.
