Lucknow has announced its intention to join the bulldozer manufacturing industry, with Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath extending an invitation to international equipment maker CNH Industrial. The Chief Minister likened bulldozers to a symbol of Uttar Pradesh, suggesting that locally produced machines could have both domestic and international appeal.
The announcement came as he virtually inaugurated the construction of CNH Industrial's new tractor plant in Jewar, located within the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) in Gautam Buddh Nagar. The project is estimated to cost more than ₹1,200 crore and will span around 100 acres. It is anticipated to create numerous jobs directly and indirectly, contribute to agricultural mechanization, and bolster modern manufacturing in the region.
Yogi emphasized the evolution of Uttar Pradesh's industrial landscape, crediting increased security and the government's zero-tolerance stance on crime as catalysts for attracting investor interest. He also described Jewar as an emerging industrial and logistics center, citing major developments such as the Noida International Airport, semiconductor manufacturing units, Medical Device Park, Toy Park, and data centers.
The Chief Minister claimed that Uttar Pradesh had attracted investment offers exceeding ₹50 lakh crore in the past nine-and-a-half years, with about ₹15 lakh crore already in the implementation phase. He noted that the state's factory count had risen from 14,000 to 35,000, while the number of startups had expanded from 120 to 25,000.
Yogi asserted that the CNH project would fortify Uttar Pradesh's manufacturing infrastructure, aid farmers, and generate fresh prospects for skilled young professionals.
