BAREILLY, Aug 6: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, on Wednesday, inaugurated and laid the foundation stone for 545 development projects worth Rs 2,264 crore in Nath Nagri, Bareilly. Addressing a public gathering on the occasion, the Chief Minister launched a sharp critique of the opposition's politics of appeasement. He said that certain anti-social elements had conspired to tarnish the image of the Kanwar Yatra, but their attempts failed in the face of public awareness and proactive administrative efforts. Today, the Yatra stands as a symbol of social unity.
Highlighting Bareilly's transformation, the Chief Minister said that lakhs of devotees now participate in Jalabhishek at the Nath Corridor, which is emerging as the new identity of the city. During the program, CM Yogi also handed over appointment letters to over 6,000 youth selected through the Rozgaar Mela, and distributed certificates and tablets to beneficiaries of various welfare schemes.
Referring to the Kanwar Yatra, he added, "Some individuals had tried to insult public sentiments and defame the tradition, but the alertness of society and the state's strong law-and-order machinery foiled such efforts."
"The double-engine BJP government is committed to blending heritage with development. Bareilly, which once suffered frequent communal riots before 2017, is now gaining fame for the Nath Corridor and spiritual tourism," he stated.
The Chief Minister emphasized that government schemes are now reaching every section of society without any discrimination based on caste, religion, or region. "This is the new India, marching ahead with the mantra of Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas. Bareilly is progressing rapidly, and the double-engine government is striving to ensure happiness, prosperity, and inclusive development," he said.
CM Yogi informed that Bareilly has been gifted 545 development projects worth Rs 2,264 crore. This includes the inauguration of 222 projects worth Rs 1,258 crore and the laying of the foundation stone for 322 projects worth Rs 1,004 crore.
