From Spiritual Capital to Global Investment Hub: Yogi Adityanath Showcases Uttar Pradesh’s New Momentum in Singapore
Speaking before members of the Indian diaspora in Singapore, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath presented a confident portrait of a state—and a nation—undergoing sweeping transformation.
Anchoring his remarks in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas’, he stressed that true progress carries meaning only when it reaches every section of society and draws strength from collective participation.
Addressing a packed gathering, the Chief Minister said the emergence of “New India” on the global stage has become a source of shared pride.
He pointed to India’s expanding global footprint and its march toward becoming the world’s third-largest economy as evidence of a nation that is no longer waiting to be acknowledged, but shaping conversations worldwide.
Digital Surge and Start-up Leadership
Reflecting on India’s digital leap, Yogi Adityanath remarked that little more than a decade ago, few would have anticipated India leading global discussions on digital governance and entrepreneurship.
Today, he said, the country stands at the forefront of innovation, having translated ambition into measurable outcomes.
He cited the recent AI Summit in New Delhi as an example of India’s growing stature.
With heads of state from 20 countries and representatives from over 100 nations in attendance, the event underscored the international recognition of India’s technological ambitions.
According to him, leaders from developed nations acknowledged the decisive policy measures taken for the welfare of 1.4 billion citizens and praised the clarity of vision that is driving the country forward.
Investment Drive: Singapore as a Gateway
The Chief Minister’s visit to Singapore forms part of a broader four-day investment outreach programme spanning Singapore and Japan.
During interactions with leading industrialists, he extended a direct invitation to global investors to participate in Uttar Pradesh’s growth story.
Three major Memorandums of Understanding worth ₹6,650 crore were signed with Universal Success Group.
The proposed projects—spanning group housing, logistics infrastructure, and hyperscale data centres—are expected to generate employment for more than 20,000 people, reinforcing the state’s push toward job creation and infrastructure-led growth.
Highlighting Uttar Pradesh’s scale, he described the state’s population of over 250 million as a vast consumer base and a strategic advantage for investors.
He assured business leaders that the government has streamlined approval mechanisms to ensure faster clearances and greater transparency.
Infrastructure, Law and Order, and Connectivity
Yogi Adityanath emphasised that Uttar Pradesh’s transformation extends well beyond investment figures.
He cited significant improvements in law and order, expansion of expressways, and enhanced connectivity as foundational changes reshaping the investment climate.
These structural reforms, he said, are positioning the state as a dependable and long-term destination for global capital.
Delegation and Next Stop
Accompanied by Finance Minister Suresh Khanna and Industries Minister Nand Gopal Nandi, the Chief Minister maintained his distinctive saffron attire even as he engaged with corporate leaders in boardrooms.
Over the course of the Singapore leg, he is scheduled to meet the CEOs of 25 companies before proceeding to Japan on February 25.
The outreach reflects Uttar Pradesh’s sustained effort to connect with global markets and accelerate its transformation into a major economic powerhouse.
With infrastructure strengthening, governance reforms deepening, and global investors taking note, Uttar Pradesh under Yogi Adityanath is projecting itself not merely as India’s most populous state, but as one of its most dynamic growth engines.
