"Comprehensive discussion": UP Minister Swatantra Dev Singh on 24-hour debate on Vision Document 2047 - World News Network

Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India], August 14 (ANI): Uttar Pradesh Jal Shakti Minister Swatantra Dev Singh on Thursday said that a “comprehensive discussion” is underway in the state’s assembly to outline a strategic plan for the state’s growth.
A 24-hour discussion on the ‘Vision Document 2047’ began on Wednesday in the Uttar Pradesh assembly, with the state government reaffirming its goal of making Uttar Pradesh the most developed state in the country by 2047, targeting zero poverty, world-class infrastructure, and advanced technology.
Speaking with ANI, Swatantra Dev Singh said, “Vision 2047 is about a developed India, self-reliant India, developed Uttar Pradesh, self-reliant Uttar Pradesh, meaning what will be the condition of the country by 2047. Comprehensive discussions are taking place in the House, and under the leadership of PM Modi and Yogi Adityanath, Uttar Pradesh will become a developed state, and you can see it today as well,” the UP Minister said.
Swatantra Dev Singh lauded the BJP-led government’s law and order in the state. “In the last 8 years, the rule of law has prevailed…Over the past 8 years, significant changes have occurred, including the absence of riots, hooliganism, and corruption, which have contributed to the development.”
State’s Jal Shakti Minister said that the discussion will result in the formation of a committee and a booklet to prepare a roadmap for 2047, outlining the strategy to achieve the goal of a developed state.
“A booklet will be created from the discussions, and a committee will be formed to deliberate. Following their deliberations, a roadmap for 2047 will be prepared, outlining the timeline and approach for achieving this goal. The Finance Minister has given this responsibility to the Chief Minister. Discussions are ongoing about where we will take the country by 2047,” he said.
However, Congress leader Aradhna Singh said that the discussion is more focused on listing the “shortcomings” of the previous government rather than outlining a vision for 2047.
“The way the government’s side, whether ministers or their members, is being presented, they are only listing the shortcomings of previous governments or talking about their current schemes; nowhere is their vision for the future visible,” she said.
She also alleged that the UP government is avoiding discussion on a strategy to provide employment, increase GDP and give relief to farmers.
“They are not discussing how they will provide employment to the youth in the future, how they will increase Uttar Pradesh’s GDP… or how farmers will get relief, there is no discussion on these matters… The government is holding this discussion just to set its own record. The opposition is asking every question to the government, but the government has no answers,” Aradhana Mishra said. (ANI)
