Uttar Pradesh: Several projects worth Rs 214 crore kicked off in Bareilly as air-connectivity set to boost economy

UP's Urban Development Minister Ashutosh Tandon inaugurated around 31 projects in the city including a solid waste management plant and Bareilly drinking water project.

The Yogi Adutyanath government in Uttar Pradesh is focusing on developing the infrastructural capability of the state. In order to resonate with PM Modi’s vision of ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’, the Uttar Pradesh government has launched several development projects in the most populous state of the country. PM Modi’s vision of ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’ was well-reflected in the state budget presented by the state Finance Minister Suresh Kumar Khanna last month in the state assembly. The budget carved out a large chunk of funds for a number of infrastructural projects like housing, Smart City Project, Sadak Yojana, etc.
