आत्मनिर्भर युवा स्टार्ट-अप मिशन से 10 लाख रोजगार
Bharatiya Janata Party · Uttar Pradesh Assembly Election 2022
Last updated 10 Oct 2026
What does this status mean?
Meaningful delivery has occurred, but the stated commitment is incomplete.
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.
Original manifesto wording
“हम आत्मनिर्भर युवा स्टार्ट-अप मिशन बनाकर 10 लाख रोजगार अथवा स्वरोजगार के अवसर प्रदान करेंगे और हम स्टार्ट-अप रैंकिंग में उत्तर प्रदेश को नंबर 1 बनाने के लिए प्रतिबद्ध हैं।”
Our Assessment
आंशिक रूप से पूरा हुआ। उत्तर प्रदेश की औपचारिक स्टार्टअप नीति है और आधिकारिक सामग्री राज्य को भारत के बड़े स्टार्टअप इकोसिस्टम में बताती है, जिसमें स्टार्टअप, इनक्यूबेटर और रैंकिंग से जुड़े लक्ष्य शामिल हैं। लेकिन 10 लाख रोजगार/स्वरोजगार अवसरों के सृजन और नंबर 1 स्टार्टअप रैंकिंग की पूर्ण पुष्टि नहीं हुई। स्थिति: आंशिक।
The reasoning behind the verdict
Why this assessment?
Reviewed
01 · Delivery status
Why partially done?
Verified startup support represents meaningful implementation, but the promised 10 lakh jobs or self-employment opportunities and number-one startup ranking are not established. A numerical outcome remains outstanding, so Partially Done is more appropriate than On Track.
The Startup Procurement Scheme is an approved mechanism awaiting evidence of rollout, orders and outcomes. AI training targets are related context and are not counted as jobs. Equivalent programme names can count when the underlying delivery and beneficiaries match the promise.
02 · Strength of evidence
Why medium confidence?
Official Startup India and PIB records substantiate ecosystem activity, support and a Top Performer category. They do not provide a mission-specific, deduplicated post-election employment total. News reports establish the October approvals, while the procurement ceilings still need confirmation in the notified rules.
What would help us reassess?
The documents that could clarify delivery of this commitment.
- A deduplicated count of jobs and self-employment opportunities delivered since the 2022 election through the mission or demonstrably equivalent programmes
- The final Startup Procurement Scheme notification confirming eligibility, procurement ceilings and commencement
- Evidence that the e-marketplace is operational, with orders awarded, payments and resulting employment
- Comparable official startup-ranking results establishing whether UP has achieved the promised number-one position
- AI Mission rollout and measured employment outcomes, kept separate from training and use-case targets
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes the evidence.

Promise Timeline
Cabinet approved the Startup Procurement Scheme 2026 and plans for a UP Startup E-Marketplace managed by the UP Startup Mission. Departments would purchase from their approved budgets. This is an implementation milestone; no operational marketplace, resulting orders or jobs have yet been verified under the new scheme. Separately reported ₹50-lakh/₹1-crore ceilings await confirmation in the final notification.
View sourceRelated evidence only: Cabinet approved the UP AI Mission, targeting support for 100 startups, training for 5 lakh youth and more than 100 AI use cases. The report was updated on 10 October. These are prospective activity targets and do not demonstrate delivery of 10 lakh jobs or self-employment opportunities.
View sourceOfficial Startup India figures, published by PIB on 17 April, recorded 21,960-plus DPIIT-recognised startups and 2,11,580-plus direct jobs in UP. These cumulative ecosystem figures since 2016 are context, not a mission-attributable count toward the manifesto's post-2022 10-lakh target.
