On that occasion, Shantanu presented his bestselling graphic novel, “Ajay to Yogi Adityanath”, as a gift to Sharma. Each of his graphic novels contains a post card to send a message to Adityanath. Using the postcard in the novel, Sharma wrote a message praising the UP CM.

This was the reason why Indians are given more importance across the world today, he had said, adding, “Brand UP” has become a strong brand across India.
Shantanu further said the same Uttar Pradesh, which was once known for anarchy, corruption, and inefficient governance, is now a top investment destination under the Yogi government. In the ranking of “Ease of Doing Business”, UP has jumped from 14th place before 2017 to 2nd position.
The author also mentioned that Uttar Pradesh is currently ranked Number 1 in the implementation of more than 40 schemes of the central government. Today, Uttar Pradesh is known for its achievements such as the Uttar Pradesh Expressway, new airports, 24-hour electricity, and a strong law-and-order situation.
