Noida , November 12: Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath today laid the foundation stone for CNH, a company to be built on 100 acres in Yamuna City’s Sector 8 at a cost of Rs 1,220 crore, via video conference (VC) from Lucknow.
Present at the event in Jewar were Gautam Buddha Nagar MP Dr Mahesh Sharma, Rajya Sabha member Surendra Nagar, Dadri MLA Tejpal Nagar, Jewar MLA Dhirendra Singh, regional president Nawab Singh Nagar, Legislative Council member Shri Chand Sharma, CNH Industrial NV CEO Gerrit Marx and CNH India Region President and MD Narendra Mittal, along with senior company officials, directors, and officers.
The Yamuna Authority has allotted 100 acres of land in Sector 8 to CNH, where the company will manufacture tractors and other agricultural machinery.
The Chief Minister laid the virtual foundation stone for the company at 10 a.m. on Thursday.
On this occasion, the Chief Minister expressed his heartfelt gratitude to the management of CNH for their faith in Uttar Pradesh.
He stated that he is confident that this project will give new impetus to the agricultural sector, development, and modern manufacturing in the state. He added that this project will provide employment and business opportunities to local youth.
He noted that the state, whose name itself holds the answer, faced many questions before 2017: migration, neglect, backwardness, identity, and anarchy. He said that under the guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Uttar Pradesh has transformed from a riotous state to a festive state.
Yogi said that the rule of law has replaced the rule of mafia in the state. He explained that due to good law and order, investment in Uttar Pradesh has increased. The state has progressed rapidly in the field of development. Due to good law and order and excellent facilities available to the industrial sector, companies from India and abroad are lining up to invest here. He said that today Uttar Pradesh has established itself as a major investment destination in the country.
He said that the establishment of law and order in Uttar Pradesh is not just due to police recruitment; their modernization, along with the government’s tough stance against crime and criminals, has been a major factor.
He quipped on this occasion, “You must have heard about UP’s bulldozers. Therefore, I would tell companies that if you come to UP to manufacture bulldozers and tractors, there will automatically be demand for them both domestically and internationally. Bulldozers have become a brand here.”
He said that the Uttar Pradesh government has created a favorable environment for investment. He said that several policies have been implemented in the state to improve industry. The vast industrial land bank network is providing a strong foundation.
He stated that the state is at the top in investment. He added that expressways, airports, and dedicated freight corridors have provided a new impetus to connectivity in the state.
