Udyami Mitra: UP Hires IIT, IIM Graduates To Assist Investors And Departments
In a significant move, the Uttar Pradesh government led by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has launched a noteworthy initiative called ‘Udyami Mitra.’ Under this program, graduates from esteemed institutions such as IITs and IIMs will be employed to assist investors and bridge the gap between various government departments.
The primary objective is to expedite the implementation of investment proposals worth a staggering Rs 35,000 lakh crore received during the UP Global Investors Summit 2023. To accomplish this, the government has hired 105 professionals who will be designated as ‘Udyami Mitra.’ Their role will involve supporting industrialists and ensuring a seamless establishment of their units within the state.
The selection process for these Udyami Mitra professionals involved shortlisting candidates from a pool of 1,387 applicants. The criteria included possessing an MBA degree with a minimum of 60% marks, fluency in both Hindi and English languages, and falling within the age bracket of 25 to 40. After a computer proficiency test, 105 candidates were chosen as Udyami Mitra professionals.
On May 26th, these selected candidates will receive offer letters personally from Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath himself. The Udyami Mitra professionals will be assigned roles at different levels, including district, state headquarters, and the UP Invest office. Seventy individuals will be designated at the district level, twenty-five at the state headquarters, and ten at the UP Invest offices.
Their responsibilities will revolve around acting as facilitators, assisting industrialists in obtaining necessary clearances, understanding government incentives, and resolving any obstacles that may arise during the establishment of their units. Before being assigned their duties, these professionals will undergo a comprehensive 14-day training program.
The tenure for the Udyami Mitra professionals is set for one year initially, with the possibility of extension depending on requirements. They will receive a monthly salary of Rs 70,000, excluding perks and benefits.
This visionary initiative highlights Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s ambition to harness the potential of IIT and IIM graduates and leverage their expertise to propel investment and economic growth in Uttar Pradesh. By streamlining processes, bridging departmental gaps, and providing dedicated support to investors, the government aims to create a conducive environment for businesses to thrive and attract more investments to the state.
