Page 2: “Growth in Challenging Times”

At the outset, I would like to thank

you all for reposing faith in me as the

head, CII Uttar Pradesh for the year

2009-10. During this year CII Uttar

Pradesh carried forward the theme

‘Growth in Challenging Times’, which

was reflected in all the activities

undertaken.

The year has been a challenging one

for the Indian Industry with the

downturn. Several sectors such as

real estate, petroleum imports,

cement, steel, auto and exports were

badly affected. Small businesses

also bore the brunt.

But the silver lining was the domestic

market, particularly the rural market

which remained relatively strong.

Fortunately, the crisis has now

receded and Indian services &

manufacturing sector is penetrating

the global markets once again.

In retrospect, all our endeavors were

in consonance with the state's

objective towards salvaging growth

in the global recessionary period and

facilitating economic growth as an

active partner with the state

government harnessing the state’s

immense potential.

The year saw a number of interactive

sessions with key government

officials. CII continued to be

represented on major working

groups and advisory boards of the

state government like the Tripartite

Labor Committee, Council of

Science and Technology (IPR

Division), Environment Policy
