"Uttar Pradesh is moving forward as an excellent destination for investment in the country. Therefore, today I invite all the stakeholders, organizers and other dignitaries from this field, who are eager to invest in Moto GP, to take advantage of the possibilities in Uttar Pradesh.

He also assured the representatives of the companies that the Uttar Pradesh government will provide all kinds of security and facilities to the investors.
Describing the organising of Moto GP in Uttar Pradesh as an encouraging event, CM Yogi said that Uttar Pradesh is not only the most populous state of India, but also one of the fastest growing economies and the youngest state in the country with 56 percent of the total population being in the working age group.
He added, “There is great potential in the sports sector and therefore, both the Central and State Governments are focusing on this sector. We are trying to develop the sports sector in Uttar Pradesh and are making every possible effort to organize such events. It is heartening to note that so far more than one lakh tickets have been sold for Moto GP 2023".
“The Moto GP race event is a center of attraction for the global automobile industry. Our government will work with full commitment to encourage investment in the automobile sector in the state and in the country through this event. Buddha International Circuit was developed by the State Government in 2011. With this event, the many possibilities within the state were presented to you through a short film. You must have seen what possibilities there are in Uttar Pradesh", the Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister said.

Today, the State Government monitors MoUs signed with investors through Nivesh Sarathi and takes its implementation forward with full commitment. Single window system is being made available to every investor. Nivesh Mitra is the largest portal within the country. It works to provide more than 400 services on one platform, where investors' problems are resolved quickly. The portal also facilitates incentives for investors. Furthermore, 25 sectoral policies for different sectors have been made and implemented effectively”, CM Yogi said.
