Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate more than 14,000 projects worth more than Rs 10 lakh crore across Uttar Pradesh through the Ground Breaking Ceremony (GBC 4.0) in the capital Lucknow on Monday.

The projects will pave the way of making Uttar Pradesh a one trillion dollar economy, the target fixed by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.

Prime Minister Modi will also visit the exhibition organised here along with CM Adityanath. He will also address the people of the state in the main GBC hangar and extend best wishes for the commencement of these projects.

The Global Investors Summit was organised on February 10-12 last year. About a year later, Ground Breaking Ceremony 4.0 is being organised on February 19-21, which will see the participation of many VIPs including PM Modi.

After the consecration of Lord Shri Ram Lala temple in Ayodhya on January 22, this is another big opportunity for the Yogi government, when the eyes of the whole world will be on Uttar Pradesh.

On the occasion of the inauguration of the event, PM Modi will give information about the achievements of the government and will also tell the success mantras to the investors.
