UP minister launches HRMS portal for investors support
PTI
Lucknow, Jul 21 (PTI) To enhance investor facilitation and internal efficiency, Uttar Pradesh Industrial Development Minister Nand Gopal Gupta 'Nandi' on Monday launched the Human Resource Management System (HRMS) portal for Udyami Mitras at the Invest UP office here.
The launch took place during a high-level review meeting on industrial development, export promotion and investment facilitation, an official statement said.
The cloud-based HRMS portal, seamlessly integrated with the state's 'Nivesh Sarathi' platform, is designed to digitise and streamline key administrative functions for Udyami Mitras, including attendance, leave, payroll, Form-16 generation and other HR operations.
It provides real-time access to employee records, promotes transparency and reinforces administrative oversight across district and state levels. By transitioning from manual to system-based workflows, the portal enables end-to-end automation of HR processes, the statement said.
The minister emphasised that this portal marks another milestone in strengthening the institutional framework for investor support in UP.
'Udyami Mitras plays a critical role in translating the state's investor-friendly policies into on-ground impact. With the launch of this HRMS system, we are further empowering them with digital tools to function more effectively," he said.
Under the Mukhyamantri Udyami Mitra Yojana launched in 2023, over 110 trained Udyami Mitras have been deployed across districts and industrial authorities.
They act as direct facilitators between investors and government, supporting tasks such as land identification, MoU tracking, investment proposal verification, industrial interactions and resolution of bottlenecks through platforms like Nivesh Mitra and Nivesh Sarathi.
The HRMS portal is a forward-looking system that enhances operational efficiency, accountability and ease of doing business, the minister said.
'It will strengthen back-end governance and enable faster, more structured investor support," he added.
During the review meeting, the minister also assessed the status of departmental coordination and directed swift resolution of pending issues. Discussions included plans and sector-focused initiatives being prepared for the upcoming ground-breaking ceremony. PTI ABN ABN KSS KSS

'The ties are historical; we have been there for Maldives as a first responder. We have had wonderful relations despite the changes in the domestic politics. Our national interests coincide," the High Commissioner said, a day after the two sides held delegation-level meetings and signed a host of agreements, including a new Rs 4,850 crore credit line for Maldives by India. 'It is a pleasure to have PM Modi invited as Guest of Honour at the Independence Day celebrations here. This is the first head of state who is visiting Maldives under the presidency of Mohd Muizzu as a state guest. So, this is very important. This is a significant milestone that both countries have achieved on the 60th anniversary of diplomatic relations between them," Balasubramanian told CNN-News18. He explained how the relationship encompasses political, cultural, trade and economic relations. 'There is a huge connection between both the countries. This visit will I am sure give further fillip to these ties," he said. Asked if China is always the elephant in the room when it comes to India-Maldives relations, the High Commissioner said: 'History is proof that as a geographical neighbour of Maldives, and as the first responder of Maldives, our relationship has always stood the test of time." On Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri's statement on Friday of putting behind some statements from Maldives in the past and looking at the future, Balasubramanian said: 'I would only further state what our foreign secretary said (about the past being past). We do have a very strong relationship and such visits and interactions between both countries add value to the relationship. It is a strong relationship." He narrated how people had queued up in Maldives to see PM Modi. 'He is a very popular leader and people here from India and Maldivians too are enthused," the High Commissioner said. Balasubramanian said more than eight initiatives were undertaken during the meetings. 'We will start negotiations on the Free Trade Agreement (FTA), and we have already finalised the terms of reference for the FTA. We have also signed implementation agreement for UPI which is a big thing in India, and it is growing abroad to help movement of people and facilitate things," he said. view comments First Published: July 26, 2025, 10:51 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

‘1 Rupee Can Buy…': American Woman Explains Why India Feels Richer Than US
Last Updated: US influencer caught a lot of attention by explaining in simple words why the Indian rupee can actually buy more things in India than the US dollar can in America. While many Indians dream of moving abroad for a better life, Kristen Fischer, a US influencer, chose to leave her country and start fresh in India. The content creator has been sharing her daily life and experiences here through her social media. Recently, she caught a lot of attention by explaining in simple words why the Indian rupee can actually buy more things in India than the US dollar can in America. Her logical explanation helped many understand why living in India can be more affordable, even when the dollar seems stronger. In the Instagram video, Fischer explained, 'Is the rupee really better than the dollar? Whenever I talk about how affordable it is to live in India, I am always faced with responses about purchasing power and how it's not a fair comparison to talk about India and the US. Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) is a relative comparison of how much a currency can buy in its own country relative to another country's currency." 'So in India, the cost of goods and services is much lower than in the US. This means that 1 rupee in India can buy you more than the equivalent of 1 dollar in the US. This is why the purchasing power exchange rate shows higher for the rupee relative to the dollar. Meaning the rupee stretches further domestically. This results in India having a higher PPP relative to the USA. The Indian rupee goes further making its PPP higher than the US dollar," Kristen Fischer added. Many Agree With Kristen Fischer's Views Reacting to the post, a user wrote, 'A truly enlightening explanation, beautifully articulated. Another shared, 'We never bought anything premium in the US while in India we buy the best always." 'So basically EARN in dollars and SPEND in rupees is the best way to live life," a comment read. One more added, 'Good that you educate the uneducated who think everything in the US is premium without visiting and feeling it." Kristen Fischer and her husband, both web developers, moved to India four years ago. view comments First Published: News viral '1 Rupee Can Buy…': American Woman Explains Why India Feels Richer Than US Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
