Early Times Report LUCKNOW, Apr 20: Alongside accelerating development works in Uttar Pradesh, the Yogi government is consistently taking positive initiatives to honour the legacy of great personalities. While the state is witnessing the creation of expressways, medical colleges, smart cities, and new opportunities for investment and employment, special programs are also being organized to preserve the memories of national heroes, saints, litterateurs, and social reformers. This balanced approach is giving a distinct identity to the Yogi government's functioning. The government believes that material development alone is not sufficient; it is equally important to connect society with its cultural roots, inspirational figures, and historical heritage. With this vision, large-scale events are regularly organized across the state on the birth and death anniversaries of great personalities. These include B. R. Ambedkar, Mahatma Gandhi, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Swami Vivekananda, Maharaja Suheldev, Ravidas, Kabir, Rani Lakshmibai, and Ramdhari Singh Dinkar, who are remembered with great respect. Tourism Minister Jaiveer Singh stated that a three-day 'Rashmirathi Parv' will be held from April 24 to 26 at Indira Gandhi Pratishthan in Lucknow, marking the death anniversary of national poet Ramdhari Singh Dinkar. The event also celebrates the 75th anniversary of his iconic work Rashmirathi and will showcase a unique blend of literature, culture, and national thought. |
