Lucknow. Prime Minister Narendra Modi gave special praise to Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath during his address. Speaking at the inauguration ceremony of the Rashtra Prerna Sthal, he said that this place was once known as a mountain of garbage spread over an area of more than 30 acres.
In the last three years, this entire area was rejuvenated and a grand Rashtra Prerna Sthal was constructed. The Prime Minister congratulated Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, workers, artisans and planners for this work. On this occasion, Defense Minister Rajnath Singh also congratulated Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath for establishing such a grand inspiration place in Lucknow.
Yogi government again made the people of the state feel ‘pride in heritage’
The BJP government under the leadership of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath gave the ‘Atal’ award to Uttar Pradesh for the second time. Under the guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Yogi government once again gave the people of the state an opportunity to be proud of their heritage. This proud feeling was seen for the second time in the six years of the Yogi government’s tenure, when the grand statue of Atal Bihari Vajpayee was unveiled.
Atal ji’s statue was unveiled in Lok Bhavan six years ago.
Atal Bihari Vajpayee has a deep emotional and political connection with Lucknow. He gave special importance to Lucknow throughout his political career. While preserving the memories of Atal ji, the Yogi government had unveiled a 25 feet high bronze statue of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the Lok Bhawan complex on 25 December 2019. Exactly six years later, on 25 December 2025, on the occasion of the birth centenary celebrations of Atal ji, the 65 feet high bronze statue was dedicated to the nation.
