Good to see CM Yogi focusing on industrial growth. Japan is known for quality and precision. If UP can become a hub for advanced auto components, it will boost 'Make in India' significantly. The focus on semiconductors and data centers is also very forward-looking.

Proposals worth 1 lakh crore sound impressive, but we've heard big numbers before. The real test is execution and how many of these MoUs actually materialize into factories that employ local youth. The government must ensure transparency in land allocation and timely clearances.

As someone working in the renewable energy sector, I'm particularly excited about the invitation to Mitsui for investments in that area. UP has great potential for solar and wind. Japanese partnership could bring in much-needed technology and scale.

Minda Corp is a solid Indian group. A partnership with their Japanese JV partners in UP is a win-win. It brings global standards to our manufacturing. Hope the focus remains on skill development for UP's workforce to handle these advanced technologies.

While industrial investment is crucial, I hope the environmental impact of these large-scale projects, especially data centers and manufacturing plants, is thoroughly assessed. Sustainable growth should be the priority, not just rapid expansion.
