On the fertiliser plant The newly built fertiliser plant will be operated by the Hindustan Urvarak Rasayan Limited (HURL). According to the Prime Minister’s Office, the foundation stone for the Gorakhpur Fertiliser Plant was laid by the prime minister on 22 July, 2016. Lying shut for more than 30 years, it has been revived and built at a cost of around Rs 8,600 crore. The fertilizer plant has been revived with an aim to achieve self-sufficiency in the production of urea.

Speaking on the project, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that before 2014, the country was known for importing urea, and the shortage of fertilisers used to make headlines, but the situation has improved now. Modi said his government stopped misuse of urea, and issued soil health cards to farmers so that they know which type of fertiliser is needed. The prime minister said his government also took steps to hike urea production by reviving closed fertiliser plants. The PM addressing huge crowds said, “When there is a government of double engines, then double speed work is also done. When work is done with good intentions, even disasters cannot become a hindrance."

News18[/caption] He added, “At the time of laying the foundation stone of the fertiliser plant, I had said that due to this factory, Gorakhpur will emerge as the pivot of development in this entire region. Today I see it coming true.” The PM was also quick to highlight that the plant would not only provide enough urea to the many farmers of the state, but would also provide new opportunities for employment and self-employment in Purvanchal. Modi also said the amount of sugarcane dues paid by the Yogi Adityanath government in four and a half years is more than the total sum paid by the previous governments in the state in 10 years. On the new AIIMS He also lauded his government for the creation of a new AIIMS in Gorakhpur. He said, “After independence till the beginning of this century, there was only one AIIMS in the country. Former Prime Minister Atal ji had approved of six AIIMS during his time. Work is going on across the country to building 16 news AIIMS for the last seven years.” Lauding the efforts of the UP government, Modi said, “When there is a government that worries about the oppressed and deprived sections, then it works hard and even yields results. The program in Gorakhpur today is a proof of the fact that nothing is impossible for new India when it becomes determined.”
