  • Significance of Industrialization & Sustainable
    Significance of Industrialization & Sustainable Development - An Uttar Pradesh Perspective The establishment of new industries on a big scale and development of traditional industries is an essential need of the economy of any country. Today, the changes in economic order of the world with an ongoing meltdown has resulted in investors exploring newer investment destinations where the investments would be safe and reaping assured returns. The pace of industrialization is influenced by a combination of factors such as sound infrastructure, uninterrupted supply of critical inputs, viz. power, credit and raw materials, proactive entrepreneurs and factors like well established financial intermediaries, favorable investment climate to attract domestic as well as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), wider application of Information Technology and competitiveness of products in terms of quality and price in both domestic and international market. In above perspective, Uttar Pradesh is witnessing a silent but steady transformation in its march towards all round development. With the second largest GSDP in the country, the state economy has grown at a brisk pace of 7% plus in last 3 years and diversified tremendously from a primarily agrarian structure to a modern industrial and service oriented one. The Government of Uttar Pradesh has created a conducive investment environment by providing attractive fiscal incentives in the form of interest-free loans against VAT payments and exemptions from stamp duty and electricity duty, speedy online clearances through “Nivesh Mitra”, healthy labour relations and a crime-free and fear- free atmosphere. Besides, Government has also implored putting up an independent system for annuity payment in place to ensure that fruits of development are shared by every proud citizen of the State.

    Gopal Kumar Johari et al., IJSRR 2019, 8(2), 2768-2783 Research article Available online www.ijsrr.org ISSN: 2279–0543 International Journal of Scientific Research and Reviews Implementation of Transportation Plan In The Ncr Region Gopal Kumar Johari * and Karmjeet Singh Chahal ** *Associate Professor, Guru Ramdas School of Planning,** Professor,Deptt of Architecture, Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar. ABSTRACT The transportation networks in region influences population distribution, shape of cities, access to markets and thus directly impacts the overall socio- economic development. Since transportation has a pivotal role it is imperative to develop an eco-friendly sustainable and convenient multi modal transportation network so as to improve connectivity, safety and reduce traffic pressure and travel time. So, it can be revealing that transportation is also a meaningful criterion to examine the situation of regional unbalance regarding the process of growth of transportation sector. The ‘National Capital Regional Plan 2021’, New Delhi aims "to promote growth and balanced development of the National Capital Region" as one by providing efficient and economical rail and road based transportation network along with -integrated land-use patterns to support the balanced regional development. It is also clears the lack of coordination between the various government and non-government agencies which examined that the transportation growth is not occurring as planned manner. The decentralized growth was planned according to the regional plan but the whole development & growth was seen only along the Delhi ( i.e. Ghaziabad, Noida, Greater Noida) and Greater Noida is the extension of Noida which was not the part of the regional plan.
