Udyami Mitras emerge as key drivers of Yogi govt’s investment revolution

Lucknow : Under the leadership of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, Uttar Pradesh has witnessed significant strides in industrial growth. At the heart of this progress are the Udyami Mitras—skilled professionals serving as the backbone of the state’s thriving investment ecosystem.

These Udyami Mitras have not only accelerated the pace of investment in the state, but have also created an environment of trust and convenience for investors by resolving their issues promptly and efficiently. Their efforts have become a cornerstone in the success of major government initiatives such as the One District, One Product (ODOP) scheme and the Global Investors Summit.

Thanks to the commitment, professionalism, and problem-solving approach of these facilitators, Uttar Pradesh is now witnessing record levels of investment. The Udyami Mitras have truly become a bridge between the government and investors—ensuring that the Yogi government’s vision for industrial transformation is realized at the ground level.

Havells India Limited is investing Rs 879 crore to establish an R&D centre in Noida, set to become operational by 2026—an achievement made possible through timely support from Udyami Mitras in resolving process-related challenges. Similarly, the Sharda Group’s Rs 600 crore Health City project in Agra is progressing smoothly, aided by prompt regulatory approvals facilitated by these dedicated professionals.

In Prayagraj, JK Cement’s Rs 400 crore project faced issues related to land mutation and road connectivity. These were resolved quickly due to the intervention of Udyami Mitras. In the case of Indraprastha Gas Limited’s (IGL) project in Fatehpur, a delay in setting up an 11 KV power line was also resolved efficiently.

Likewise, Dr. Ramesh Chandra’s Rs 50 crore Vinmax Agro Industries project in Barabanki and Amul’s boarding house project in Varanasi were both pushed forward with timely approvals and clear guidance from the Udyami Mitras.

Under Invest UP, Udyami Mitras have accurately updated project data for GBC 4.0 and are actively tagging and organizing MoUs for GBC 5.0. Investor issues are being addressed on priority and escalated to higher authorities when needed.

Regular meetings are held with investors through the Udyog Bandhu platform to maintain communication. The team has also completed tasks like industry pilot surveys, EV station surveys, and land site visits within set deadlines.

Notably, the state government started the Udyami Mitra scheme before the Global Investors Summit to ensure that investors had dedicated representatives to help them with government procedures, approvals, and issue resolution.

These Udyami Mitras are specially trained and deployed across various districts and departments to guide investors and solve their problems. This scheme has played a key role in making Uttar Pradesh a trusted and capable destination for investment.
