Yogi Adityanath said that while good leadership takes the country to great heights, giving power in wrong hands increases poverty.

He said that Meerut is directly connected to Delhi through 12 lane expressway. Now the people of Meerut do not want to live in Delhi, the people of Delhi want to live in Meerut, Sardhana and Muzaffarnagar. The distance which used to take 5 hours to cover is now covered in 1 hour. Meerut has also been connected to the rapid rail service.

He said that the first sports university of UP is being built here in the name of Major Dhyanchand.
