Yogi Adityanath promises transformation: Bundelkhand to become heaven on Earth
Banda, July 09: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath launched a scathing attack on Samajwadi Party in a public meeting held in Banda on Thursday, he said that before 2017, during the SP government’s government in the state, Bundelkhand was suffering from backwardness. At that time, the region was dominated by goons, mafias, and bandits. Instead of providing employment to the youth, they were given guns. Today, under the BJP government, Bundelkhand is becoming a major center of national security through the Defense Corridor, and the youth here will be working on the production of BrahMos missiles. He said that when India fires BrahMos, even Pakistan cries out. He said that Bundelkhand is developing rapidly and will soon become a paradise on earth.
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath was addressing the public on Thursday after inaugurating and laying the foundation stone for 229 projects worth Rs 710 crore at Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru College grounds in Banda district.
Chief Minister Yogi said that due to the BJP government’s policies, new investment opportunities have emerged in Bundelkhand and migration has been curbed. Under the “One District, One Product” scheme, Banda’s Shajar stone is gaining recognition in the country and abroad and is now being counted among precious gems.
He said that Bundelkhand is about to receive a major gift in the form of BIDA, which will create vast employment opportunities in the future, and youth will come here not to seek jobs, but to find them. The
Yogi stated that both development and heritage are the BJP’s priorities. He added that this journey of development has been possible only because of good public representatives. In the future, whatever development project proposals public representatives bring, the government will promote them and include Bundelkhand among the most developed regions of the country.
He said that if this continuity of development is broken, future generations will never forgive him. Targeting the SP MLA from Baberu, the Chief Minister said that he has no interest in development. Robbing the rights of the poor is his development model, which will be stopped at all costs.
Yogi Adityanath questioned why statues of great figures like Maharana Pratap and warrior Avantibai were not installed earlier, and why the Bundelkhand Expressway was not built.
He said that after becoming Chief Minister in 2017, 64,000 acres of government land was freed from the clutches of mafias, on which new development and investment projects are now taking place. The Chief Minister said that the BJP government integrates heritage and development. Today, work is being done on the preservation of temples and the development of religious sites, whereas previous governments prioritized the development of graveyards. This is why some people oppose the development of temples and religious heritage.
He said that Banda is working to honor its heroes and heroines. He stated that he arrived in Banda after performing the Parikrama of Lord Kamatnath in Chitrakoot. He stated that some people, instead of respecting the country’s cultural heritage, have made it their goal to insult it. They dislike the Ram Temple, Kashi Vishwanath Dham, Maa Vindhyavasini Dham, and the development work being carried out in Chitrakoot.
The Chief Minister stated that the BJP government does not engage in appeasement politics, but rather ensures that the benefits of government schemes reach all eligible people without discrimination. The safety of businessmen and women is the government’s top priority. The law has established strict measures for those who attempt to compromise their security.
Concluding the meeting, the Chief Minister stated that good public representatives are a guarantee of development. Today, numerous development projects, including a medical college, an agricultural university, and an engineering college, are underway in Bundelkhand. He stated that if public representatives are honest and development-oriented, the region will progress. However, if bandits and criminals win, they will rob the projects and seize the land of the poor. Therefore, for the bright future of the state and Bundelkhand, selection of right public representatives is extremely important.
