Key drivers are robust job creation through infrastructure, digital, and industrial projects, as well as targeted skilling and education reforms.

Cultural renaissance is on the agenda, blending preservation of spiritual, historical, and traditional heritage with contemporary progress.
ISRO will assist in launching a dedicated satellite for UP, boosting disaster management, weather forecasting, and digital connectivity.
Implementation and Public Engagement
Vision 2047 will be finalised with feedback from experts, NITI Aayog, and citizens, making the process inclusive and consultative.
Regular monitoring and public dashboards will ensure transparency and accountability at every stage.
The Chief Minister called on every citizen to align with this vision for “Viksit UP, Viksit Bharat,” urging participatory development efforts.
