UP CM dedicates infra projects worth Rs 145 crore to Azamgarh

08 Aug 2022 CW Team

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has dedicated development projects worth over Rs 145 crore to Azamgarh. Azamgarh, known for radicalisation previously, is prepared to scale new heights of development with the presence of the rule of law, and through a slew of developmental projects taking shape under the Bharatiya Janata Party’s rule.

“Azamgarh’s potential was blemished in the presence of negative, divisive forces. The youth used to face identity crises, remain jobless and lag behind others. However, today, Azamgarh’s faith in the BJP will take it to new heights of development and prosperity,” said CM Adityanath.

He added that before five years, whenever the youth belonging to Azamgarh went out to different states looking for employment, he had to conceal his identity to get shelter. “Azamgarh ka Naujavan apni pehchan chhupane par majboor hota tha, uske saamne pehchan ka sankat khada hota tha,” CM Adityanath said.

PM Modi laid the foundation stone for the Purvanchal Expressway in 2018 at Azamgarh to boost the development of the region and connect it to places like Delhi and Lucknow. Besides, Azamgarh’s decades-long dream of having a university was also fulfilled by the double-engine governments of the BJP, asserted CM Adityanath.
