At ODOP summit, President Kovind says UP can be a trillion dollar economy

UP's flagship 'One District, One Product' Summit was inaugurated by President Ram Nath Kovind on Friday

President Ram Nath Kovind on Friday said Uttar Pradesh had the potential to become a trillion dollar economy in the near future since it has an abundance of socioeconomic resources such as manpower, handicraft and traditional industries.   

Kovind's comments came less than two weeks after Prime Minister Narendra Modi had also remarked, at the same venue in Lucknow, that UP was on track to becoming India's first trillion dollar economy as it derived strength from the radical policy interventions and various development projects of the Yogi Adityanath government.
