Uttar Pradesh Plans International Trade City and Sees Growth in Hotel Investments
The Uttar Pradesh government, led by Yogi Adityanath, plans to develop an International Trade City in Noida modeled after China's Yiwu hub to boost exports and support the state's 9.5 million MSMEs. Concurrently, the state's hotel investment pipeline has grown to over ₹44,250 crore, with nearly 1,000 new hotels approved in three years, reflecting a tourism infrastructure boom. Officials attribute this growth to improved law and order and enhanced tourism promotion across 14 circuits.
