State of Uttar Pradesh is aggressively accelerating its journey toward becoming a $1 trillion economy. During his highly anticipated official visit to Singapore, UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath successfully attracted massive global capital, bagging investment proposals worth a staggering ₹1 lakh crore in just two days.


This diplomatic and economic triumph has firmly placed Uttar Pradesh on the global investment map, with multinational corporations eager to tap into the state's rapidly transforming infrastructure.

Massive MoUs and Global Confidence Addressing global business leaders, CM Yogi revealed that out of the ₹1 lakh crore proposals, Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) worth ₹60,000 crore have already been officially signed.

Chief Minister pitched his government's "Triple S" model—Safety, Stability, and Speed—as the core driving force behind the state's renewed investor confidence. During his packed itinerary, he held high-level discussions with Singapore's Deputy Prime Minister Gan Kim Yong and Home Affairs Minister K. Shanmugam. He also sought long-term institutional capital from global financial giants like GIC, Temasek, and Blackstone, focusing heavily on hyperscale data centers, renewable energy, and sustainable urban development.

AISATS Pumps ₹4,458 Crore Into Jewar Airport While the broader investment numbers are incredibly impressive, the biggest specific highlight of the trip came from the aviation sector.

Aviation services major Air India SATS Airport Services Private Limited (AISATS) signed a landmark MoU with the UP government to invest ₹4,458 crore at the upcoming Noida International Airport in Jewar. This massive capital injection will fund two major state-of-the-art projects:

  • Advanced Cargo Hub: AISATS will develop a world-class, integrated cargo terminal complex. Thanks to Jewar’s multi-modal connectivity, this facility is expected to position the airport as North India’s premier air freight and logistics gateway, heavily boosting export-import activities for electronics, pharmaceuticals, and agriculture.
  • Air Catering Kitchen: The second project is a modern, high-capacity air catering kitchen. Interestingly, this facility will not just serve flights operating out of Jewar; it is designed to supply in-flight meals to multiple airports across northern India, creating thousands of direct and indirect jobs in the local food processing and supply chain sectors.

Road Ahead for UP's Economy Beyond aviation and logistics, CM Yogi also explored potential models for skilling centers and employment zones, touring Singapore’s renowned Institute of Technical Education. By directly engaging with over 25 leading companies, the Chief Minister has sent a clear message: Uttar Pradesh is fully open for global business.

With the Jewar Airport rapidly nearing completion and billions in foreign direct investment pouring in, the economic landscape of UP is poised for a historic transformation.
