A STORY OF PROGRESS
Yogi Adityanath was announced as the 22nd chief minister of Uttar Pradesh in 2017. He was a Member of Parliament for over two decades, with an outstanding parliamentary record on attendance, number of questions asked, number of debates participated in, and number of private member bills presented. A dynamic and popular leader, he also managed nearly four dozen educational, health and spiritual institutions of the Gorakhnath Math.
The CM spent the initial months of 2017 in improving the state’s governance through his strong leadership and vision. In an article with a national daily, Yogi Adityanath said, "Our biggest challenge was to revive the faith in law and order amid the prevailing anarchy and goonda raj. Our motto, was acted on so that the public can breathe easy along with investors, which would help usher another industrial revolution in the state, eventually propelling UP to be a $1 trillion economy. The first step was to bring the law-and-order situation under control, tighten the noose around illegal mining, land mafia and shut down the unauthorised slaughterhouses polluting our rivers."
