Yogi Adityanath urges CNH to manufacture bulldozers in Uttar Pradesh
The Chief Minister suggested the company produce the machinery in the state because the bulldozer has become a brand in Uttar Pradesh.
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has invited CNH Industrial to manufacture bulldozers in the state, according to reports by Moneycontrol, The Times of India and Hindustan Times. He made the suggestion while virtually addressing the groundbreaking ceremony for a new tractor manufacturing plant in the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) area on Thursday.
Speaking at the event, Adityanath said that since the company is already producing tractors in the state, it could also produce bulldozers. He claimed that because the machine has become a brand in Uttar Pradesh, there would be automatic demand for them both domestically and internationally.
The Chief Minister stated that the state has transitioned from being controlled by mafias to being governed by legal principles. He attributed the improved law and order situation to a zero-tolerance policy regarding crime and criminals.
Adityanath noted that a strong security environment has helped the state become a destination for ease of doing business and investor confidence. He added that Uttar Pradesh currently holds an 18.5 per cent share of the tractor market in India.
The CNH Industrial plant is being established in Sector 8D of the YEIDA area at a cost exceeding Rs 1,200 crore. The Chief Minister assured the management of all possible facilities and cooperation for the project.
