As Prime Minister Narendra Modi invited the delegates to the Global Investors' Summit 2023 in Lucknow on Friday, he said despite being the chief guest of the summit, it was his responsibility to accord the welcome as he is also an elected representative from the state. "Only a few years ago, Uttar Pradesh was known as a BIMARU state. Nobody had any hope from the state. But now Uttar Pradesh stands for good governance and development," PM Modi said adding that UP will be the state of five airports and is going to be linked to the seas directly.
