In the last three to four years, exports from Uttar Pradesh have increased 400 times. UP alone exports products worth more than Rs 19,000 crore rupees and the target is to double the figure. The income of farmers has more than doubled in the last nine years. Uttar Pradesh will play an important role in making the country's economy USD 5 trillion," the CM said."India is achieving new heights of development and prosperity under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
