The Chief Minister stressed that the inspiration of Lord Krishna’s selfless actions strengthens society and ensures resilience. Marking 78 years of independence, he underlined the vision of making Uttar Pradesh prosperous by 2047, in line with the centenary goals for India.

The event also featured devotional performances of bhajans, kirtans and Krishna lilas, alongside the screening of a documentary on the Govardhan Parikrama. Yogi Adityanath greeted children dressed as Krishna, lifted them in his arms, and performed annaprashan by feeding them kheer.
