Nation is not served by slogans or speeches but by performing duties honestly, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said on Thursday, asserting that the state has been made into a “growth engine” in the eight years of his stewardship.
Addressing an appointment letter distribution programme for medical officers of Ayush department here, the CM said, “Eight years ago, Uttar Pradesh was known as a ‘bimaru’ (sick) state. It wasn’t the state that was sick, but the system. The working methods of the past governments were sick, and this led to a state incapable of making decisions and delivering results.”
He added, “Today, we see a new Uttar Pradesh, one that takes decisions with care, transparency, and honesty. These are the same values that have brought about significant changes in the state.”
Uttar Pradesh has experienced remarkable progress, particularly in administrative reforms, and its economic growth, once hindered by bureaucratic inefficiencies, has now become a driving force for India’s development, he claimed.
Adityanath also claimed that the Maha Kumbh was made a success because of the mix of teamwork and technology.
