Over 1.35 lakh industries established in UP in Apr'12-May'15

Uttar Pradesh government today said that between April 2012 to May 2015 over 1.35 lakh micro, small, medium and big industries were established in the state.
"Between April 2012 and May 2015, 1,35,089 micro, small, medium and big industries were established in the state," state minister Ram Murti Verma said while replying to question raised by BJP members Lokendra Singh and Jyotsana Srivastava in Assembly.
He said Infrastructure and Industrial investment policy 2012 has been formulated by the government to attract investment in the state.
On being asked by BJP member Satish Mahana about how many industries migrated to other states, the minister said that he had no such information.

He said that for promotion of industries, power, infrastructure and good law and order was needed but it was lacking in the state.
"The information regarding migration of industries to other states are not compiled," he said.
Later, alleging that the government was not serious in promoting industries, BJP members staged a walkout from the House.
