Uttar Pradesh is among the top five states to give labour reforms and environmental clearance to industries, Yogi Adityanath said. "This is converting UP to an 'enterprise state'. The record economic investment made in the development journey of the last five years offers a glimpse of the transformation. The Ground Breaking Ceremony 3.0 will add many golden chapters to it," the chief minister further wrote.

Both the leaders will also visit the Milan Kendra on Friday, which is the ancestral house of the president. It "was donated for public use and converted to a community centre (Milan Kendra)," a statement by the PM's office read.
