Uttar Pradesh Crosses ₹1 Lakh Crore GeM Procurement, Wins Three National Awards
Uttar Pradesh has surpassed ₹1 lakh crore in government procurement through the Government e-Marketplace (GeM) since 2017, with over 55% of purchases from micro and small enterprises (MSEs). The state received three national awards—GeM Overall Excellence, Highest Procurement Value, and Best Outreach Building—at the 10th GeM Foundation Day in New Delhi. Officials credited this milestone to enhanced transparency, digital governance, and inclusive policies under Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's leadership, with significant participation from local enterprises.
