The Uttar Pradesh government has said that rising pollution and population are a key barrier to economic growth.
UP chief secretary Durga Shankar Mishra called for focus and attention towards the challenges of pollution and population.
Addressing
collectors of all the 75 districts, the chief secretary said, "These
factors are hampering our development journey. Clean environment and
small families are crucial for a happy future. The message must be
conveyed respectfully and responsibly to people from all walks of life
through thought provoking seminars and discussions. This is essential to
achieving economic independence and social equality."
Mishra added that people of the state must be made aware about the steps taken by the state government for development.
"Efforts
must be made to create awareness among people about the welfare schemes
started by the state government and people must be called upon to join
hands with the system for the cause," he said.
