UP govt launches book on 8 years of state under CM Adityanath

"Gatiman Uttar Pradesh: Yogi Sarkar Ke Bemisal 8 Saal" documents Uttar Pradesh&rsquo;s comprehensive development journey under CM Yogi Adityanath, showcasing achievements in governance, industry, and social welfare.

A book launch ceremony for "Gatiman Uttar Pradesh: Yogi Sarkar Ke Bemisal 8 Saal," documenting the comprehensive transformation and development journey of the state under the leadership of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, was held on Tuesday at the Visvesvaraya Auditorium here.
Addressing the gathering, Assembly Speaker Satish Mahana said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the chief minister are continuously working to realise the vision of India envisioned by the nation's brave freedom fighters after Independence.
He said that Uttar Pradesh's history and legacy have acquired a renewed identity, giving every citizen of the state a sense of pride.
History has seen saints who became kings, and today Uttar Pradesh is witnessing effective and ethical governance under the leadership of a "saint-statesman," Mahana said.
Highlighting Adityanath's personality, he said it reflects a unique blend of compassion, culture, and values, which is evident in the all-round development achieved across sectors in the state.
He added that Uttar Pradesh has gained fresh momentum in development and has emerged as a model state in investment, employment generation, industrial expansion, and social justice.
The speaker said the book stands as strong evidence of the government's transparent, accountable, and result-oriented approach.
Minister for Women Welfare, Child Development and Nutrition, Baby Rani Maurya, was also present on the occasion.
Author Sheelwant Singh said that the objective of the book is to present, in a simple and accessible manner, the true picture of a rapidly transforming Uttar Pradesh under Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath over the past eight years.
The book highlights innovative initiatives in agriculture, industry, tourism, health, education, law and order, infrastructure, entrepreneurship, and employment, along with the changing prospects for youth, women, and farmers.

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath accused Jawaharlal Nehru of making Kashmir controversial and fuelling extremism, while praising Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel’s role in integrating princely states.

Yogi Adityanath Blames Nehru for Kashmir Issues on Patel's Death Anniversary

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath accused Jawaharlal Nehru of making Kashmir controversial and fuelling extremism, while praising Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel&rsquo;s role in integrating princely states.

Uttar Pradesh Chief Yogi Adityanath on Monday blamed Jawaharlal Nehru for the extremism and separatism "emanating from Kashmir", and alleged that the first prime minister of India made the issue so "controversial" that it continues to sting the country even now.
Addressing an event on the 75th death anniversary of the country's first home minister, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, he referred to the integration of over 560 princely states into the Union of India and pointed to Junagadh and Hyderabad, which were prickly thorns in the process.
"All the Hindu princely states of India agreed to become a part of the Republic of India, but the Nawab of Junagadh and the Nizam of Hyderabad refused. Both had to be integrated into India. Through a bloodless revolution, solely due to Sardar Patel's wisdom, these two princely states became a part of India," Adityanath said.
He went on to say that there was uncertainty about the fate of the princely state of Jammu and Kashmir.
"So, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru took the matter into his own hands. He made Jammu and Kashmir so controversial that it continued to sting India even after Independence. The country got extremism ('ugravaad') and separatism ('algaavaad') from Kashmir because of Pandit Nehru," the Uttar Pradesh chief minister claimed.
He added that the country is grateful to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who, by fulfilling the dreams of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and Syama Prasad Mookerjee, has abolished Article 370 in Kashmir, making it an integral part of India, while taking forward the resolve of one country, one constitution, and one flag.
"There were 567 princely states at the time of Independence, and they were integrated into the Republic of India. The country will always remember Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel as its architect. This is his creation," the chief minister said.
He pointed out that the Nawab of Junagadh and Hyderabad's Nizam did not want to join India, as the British gave the princely states the freedom to choose whether they wanted to join India or Pakistan, or maintain their independent existence.
Eulogising Sardar Patel, the Uttar Pradesh chief minister said the first home minister of India initiated numerous programmes in the country.
"Be it the restoration of the Somnath temple, the development of a mechanism to resolve various disputes within India, or giving the Indian Administrative Service its present form, all of this was made possible because of this great leader, Vallabhbhai Patel."
"It was the country's misfortune that just when India needed the glorious leadership of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel for a longer period, he passed away on December 15, 1950," Adityanath said.
Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak also spoke on this occasion.
Earlier, in a post on X, Adityanath paid tributes to Patel, saying, "On the death anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, the architect of India's unity and integrity from north to south and east to west, and the 'Iron Man' and 'Bharat Ratna, ' we pay him our humble tributes!
"His tireless contributions to the country's internal security, self-reliance, and the empowerment of farmers, and his vision of 'Ek Bharat, Shrestha Bharat, Surakshit Bharat' (One India, Great India, Secure India), are an inspiration to us all," he said.
Deputy Chief Ministers Keshav Prasad Maurya and Pathak also paid their tributes to Sardar Patel.
In a post in Hindi on X, Maurya said, "Our humble tributes to the architect of India's unity and integrity, the first home minister and deputy prime minister of Independent India, 'Bharat Ratna', the 'Iron Man' Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, on his death anniversary!"
"'Iron Man' Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel successfully integrated the princely states, providing a strong foundation for the nation's unity and security. By connecting farmers, backward classes, and marginalised sections of society through cooperatives, he propelled the country towards self-employment and self-reliance. His life, imbued with duty, courage, and service to the nation, remains a constant source of inspiration for all of us," Maurya said on X.
Pathak took to X to say, "Humble tributes to the architect of modern India, the symbol of national unity and integrity, the first Home Minister and Deputy Prime Minister of independent India, Bharat Ratna, the Iron Man Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, on his death anniversary."
Born in Nadiad, Gujarat, in 1875, Patel was a pivotal figure in India's struggle for Independence. As the country's first home minister, he was instrumental in integrating over 560 princely states into the Indian Union post-Independence. He died in 1950.

Uttar Pradesh authorities have identified over 10 key suspects in a major investigation into the illegal trade of codeine-based cough syrups, with FIRs filed against 128 establishments and raids ongoing across multiple districts.

Uttar Pradesh Cracks Down on Codeine-Based Cough Syrup Trade

Uttar Pradesh authorities have identified over 10 key suspects in a major investigation into the illegal trade of codeine-based cough syrups, with FIRs filed against 128 establishments and raids ongoing across multiple districts.

Uttar Pradesh Police and the Food Safety and Drug Administration (FSDA) have identified more than 10 key suspects allegedly involved in the organised nexus behind the illegal trade of codeine-based cough syrups, as the state's biggest crackdown on the menace gathers pace, officials said Thursday.
The identification of the suspects emerged during an extensive investigation by the FSDA and police into the diversion, storage and trafficking of codeine-based cough syrups, which is being probed by a special investigation team (SIT) constituted by the state government earlier this week.
"The probe has so far led to the identification of over a dozen persons believed to be part of the core conspiracy operating across multiple districts and states. Evidence suggests a well-coordinated network involving manufacturers, distributors, transporters and local operators," a senior official said, requesting anonymity.
According to the official, FIRs have been registered against more than 128 establishments and their operators so far, marking what the government describes as its largest-ever action against illegal pharmaceutical trafficking in the state.
Raids are continuing at multiple locations to apprehend those identified, while investigators are also examining financial transactions, inter-state linkages and possible diversion of legally manufactured cough syrup into the illegal market, the official said.
The action was initiated after the state government took suo motu cognisance of incidents related to misuse of codeine-based cough syrups reported in other states, following which enforcement was stepped up across Uttar Pradesh, he added.
The SIT, headed by Inspector General of Police (Law and Order) L R Kumar and comprising senior police and FSDA officials, is probing the organised nature of the racket and its wider ramifications.
"The chief minister has taken a very firm view of the matter and has directed that no person involved, irrespective of position or influence, should be spared," the official said.
Further arrests and disclosures are expected as searches and seizures continue, he added.

UP CM Yogi Adityanath Assures Quick Resolution of Public Grievances

Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath during a &lsquo;Janta Darshan&rsquo; meet assured citizens that all grievances, including land disputes and medical aid requests, will be addressed promptly and effectively.

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Wednesday assured people that every grievance raised with the government would be resolved in a time-bound and effective manner.
Interacting with visitors during a &lsquo;Janta Darshan&rsquo; meet at the Mahant Digvijaynath Smriti Bhavan auditorium in the Gorakhnath temple, the chief minister heard the grievances of around 200 people, an official statement said.
After a night's halt on the temple premises, Adityanath directed the concerned officials present at the venue to deal with each person&rsquo;s issue sensitively and ensure timely disposal of all cases, the statement said.
A large number of women attended the programme.
The chief minister asked the officials to take strict legal action in land-grabbing cases. When a woman complained that her house had been set on fire, Adityanath ordered immediate action against the accused, the statement said.
Several people also sought financial assistance for the treatment of serious ailments. Assuring full support, the chief minister said lack of funds would not hinder medical care, and instructed the officials to expedite hospital estimates and send them to the government so that adequate help could be provided from the chief minister&rsquo;s relief fund, the statement said.

Indian athletes boosting nation's pride globally: UP CM Adityanath

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath honoured winners of the 69th National School Games 2025 and announced plans to strengthen sports infrastructure.

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Thursday said Indian sportspersons are enhancing the country&rsquo;s prestige globally and the state government is strengthening sports infrastructure at every level to support young talent.
According to a statement, Adityanath was speaking at a function to felicitate winners of the 69th National School Games 2025 (Greco-Roman) wrestling competition at Veer Bahadur Singh Sports College. He honoured medalists in the under-17 and under-19 categories.
Addressing the participants, he said, "Sports play a vital role in the all-round development of an individual, and the way Indian sportspersons are enhancing the nation's prestige on the global stage is a matter of great pride.&rdquo;&nbsp;
Keeping this in mind, he said, the state government has taken significant steps to strengthen sports infrastructure at every level. He also urged the athletes to aim for a strong performance at the 2030 Commonwealth Games, which will be hosted in India.
The chief minister reiterated that sports are a powerful medium for holistic growth and said Prime Minister Narendra Modi&rsquo;s vision of an Atmanirbhar and Viksit Bharat is closely linked to the health and strength of the youth. This will be possible only when sports are given equal importance as academics in institutions, he said.
He said the government has decided to build a stadium in every district and a mini-stadium in every block. Mini-stadiums are being constructed in government colleges in 18 districts, each with an allocation of nearly Rs 5 crore, he added.
Similar facilities are coming up in government colleges in Gorakhpur and Maharajganj. To boost sports in educational institutions, the government is providing Rs 25,000 to each college, Rs 5,000 to schools under basic and secondary education, and Rs 10,000 to junior high schools.
He said a sports university is being established in Meerut and will be named after hockey legend Major Dhyan Chand.Encouraging the wrestlers, Adityanath said those competing in the under-17 and under-19 categories should target medals at the 2030 Commonwealth Games in Ahmedabad.
He advised runners-up and those who missed medals to learn from their shortcomings and continue working hard, noting that the first competition is always with oneself.

Yogi Adityanath Highlights Ram Temple Pride in Ayodhya

Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath says the ceremonial hoisting of the saffron flag atop Ayodhya&rsquo;s Ram temple reflects India&rsquo;s cultural continuity and inspires national pride.

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Thursday said the ceremonial hoisting of the religious flag atop the Ram temple in Ayodhya signifies a proud moment for every Indian and represents an important link in the country's unbroken civilisational heritage.
Addressing the founder's week ceremony of the Maharana Pratap Shiksha Parishad in Gorakhpur, Adityanath said the construction of the grand temple at the Ram Janmabhoomi site and the raising of the 'dharma dhwaja' reflect India's cultural continuity.&nbsp;
"This is a significant milestone in our civilisational journey, one that allows every Indian to feel pride in being the inheritor of this legacy," he said.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on November 25 hoisted the saffron flag atop the Ram temple, marking its formal completion, in the presence of RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat, Uttar Pradesh Governor Anandiben Patel and CM Adityanath.
The chief minister on Thursday said India's identity is rooted in its culture, traditions and national icons, and the loss of cultural values leads to a weakening of national unity.&nbsp;
Recalling the contributions of historical figures such as Maharana Pratap, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, Guru Gobind Singh, Rani Lakshmibai and countless soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the nation, he said their courage continues to inspire future generations.
Adityanath emphasised that festivals and traditions strengthen national values and bring people together beyond social differences. He also highlighted Prime Minister Modi's "five pledges", saying they have helped the country reconnect with its heritage, shed the mindset of colonialism, and reaffirm respect for the armed forces.
The chief minister said India has made significant economic progress in recent years, emerging as one of the fastest-growing nations. He asserted that if citizens fulfil their duties and uphold unity, the country will achieve the goal of becoming a developed nation by 2047. "National identity must rise above divisions of caste, region and language. If we embrace these five commitments, there is no reason India cannot become a fully developed nation," he said.

Vande Mataram discussion in UP legislature to mark 150th anniversary: Yogi Adityanath

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said the winter session of the state legislature will feature a discussion on Vande Mataram&rsquo;s 150th anniversary, along with key legislative business and development-related issues.

Ahead of the winter session of the Uttar Pradesh legislature, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said it would provide an opportunity for discussion on Vande Mataram on its 150th anniversary.
Speaking to reporters inside Vidhan Bhavan, Adityanath said the session, running from December 19-24, is crucial for members to raise issues in the House, advancing the interests of the people and the state's development.
"On this occasion, the Uttar Pradesh Legislature will also have the opportunity to hold an important discussion commemorating the 150th anniversary of Vande Mataram and to express gratitude to its composer," he said.
"This is because the date of the founding of Uttar Pradesh coincides with the date of the notification recognising Vande Mataram as the national song under the Constitution of India, making a discussion on this topic in the Uttar Pradesh Legislature particularly significant," Adityanath added.
Adityanath also said it was clearly conveyed during the all-party meeting that the government is fully prepared to discuss all issues.
He emphasised that the government maintains a positive approach towards development-related matters and expects cooperation from all parties to ensure the smooth conduct of the session.
He said that the country's largest legislature is steadily moving in the right direction, and when democratic institutions become forums for meaningful debate, elected representatives uphold public trust.
He added that while the government had wished for a longer session, many legislators are currently engaged in the special (intensive) revision of electoral rolls, an exercise crucial for maintaining the integrity and transparency of democracy.
Consequently, the session has been scheduled until December 24 to accommodate essential legislative business, supplementary demands, and deliberations on Vande Mataram.
Adityanath expressed confidence that the session would prove significant for the Uttar Pradesh Legislature and the overall development of the state.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is closely monitoring the situation at the MahaKumbh following a stampede-like incident early in the morning.&nbsp;
He remains in constant communication with the state government and has spoken with Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath three times this morning, providing directives to help normalize the situation and facilitate relief efforts.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah has also reached out to Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath in the wake of the incident at the Sangam during the Mauni Amavasya celebrations at the Mahakumbh Mela. Shah assured Adityanath of the Centre&rsquo;s full support in handling the situation.
After the Akharas initially called off the Holy Dip for the day, the president of the Akhil Bharatiya Akhara Parishad, Ravindra Puri, confirmed that the Akharas will now resume their 'snan' today.&nbsp;
He emphasized that they are maintaining continuous communication with the Mela administration. Speaking to ANI, Puri said, "Our snan was postponed in the morning after a massive crowd gathered at the ghats. We tried to postpone our plan. Now that the crowd has reduced and the ghats meant for our snan are being vacated, it seems that all Akharas will be able to do snan today... We all, our all Mahamandaleshwars, Mandaleshwars, Naga Sadhus and devotees, will take a holy dip today..."
Puri further stated that the Akharas would still hold their traditional procession, albeit on a smaller scale. He also mentioned that the holy dip could take place even at night. "Our processions will be carried out as usual according to our tradition but will be on a smaller scale... We are in regular contact with the Mela administration... We have a lot of time and we are in no hurry. We can do snan even at night, as it is Mauni Amavasya today..." he added.
Following the stampede-like situation at Mahakumbh, the president of the Akhil Bharatiya Akhara Parishad attributed the incident to the "spread of misinformation."&nbsp;
He remarked, "In the morning, misinformation was spread to create fear in the minds of people. And they succeeded. In the morning when we talked to everyone, we found that the reality was different and a lot of rumours were spread... I want to urge people to not run towards Sangam and take a dip wherever they find Ganga ji..."
Meanwhile, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has urged devotees to take their holy dip at the nearest available ghat instead of converging at a single location.&nbsp;
He posted on X, "Dear devotees, come to Prayagraj. Take a bath at the ghat of Mother Ganga near which you are; do not try to go towards Sangam Nose. All of you should follow the instructions of the administration and cooperate in making arrangements. People are bathing peacefully at all the ghats of Sangam. Do not pay any attention to any rumours."
The incident occurred as an enormous gathering of devotees assembled at the Sangam Ghats for the 'Amrit Snan' on the occasion of 'Mauni Amavasya.'&nbsp;
This event marks the second Shahi Snan and is expected to attract between 80 to 100 million pilgrims. Other significant bathing dates during the Maha Kumbh include February 3 (Basant Panchami&mdash;Third Shahi Snan), February 12 (Maghi Purnima), and February 26 (Maha Shivaratri).

NASA astronaut Donald Pettit recently shared awe-inspiring images of the 2025 Maha Kumbh Mela from the International Space Station (ISS).&nbsp;
In his post on X (formerly Twitter), Pettit remarked, "2025 Maha Kumbh Mela Ganges River pilgrimage from the ISS at night. The largest human gathering in the world is well lit."

&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Pettit's aerial view underscores the grandeur of the festival, which has already attracted millions of devotees from around the world. With over 110 million people having attended the event in the first 14 days alone, the ongoing Maha Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj is shaping up to be one of the largest spiritual gatherings ever.&nbsp;
As this sacred event occurs once every 12 years, the crowds will continue to swell until its conclusion on February 26, 2025.
The festival brings millions of pilgrims to the Sangam, the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and the now-extinct Saraswati rivers. Devotees believe that bathing in these waters cleanses them of sins and leads them on the path to moksha (liberation). This spiritual ritual takes place during a rare celestial alignment, adding to the event's significance.
The Maha Kumbh Mela is a symbol of collective spirituality, uniting people from different backgrounds, cultures, and traditions. Even in the face of cold weather, devotees have braved the elements to take part in the sacred dip at the Sangam, showing their deep faith and devotion.
As the festival progresses, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and the state government have implemented large-scale security measures to ensure the safety of the pilgrims.&nbsp;
Thousands of security personnel, including police forces, paramilitary, and local authorities, have been deployed across Prayagraj to handle the massive crowds. These extensive arrangements also include surveillance through drones, CCTV cameras, and a special focus on crowd management to prevent any untoward incidents.&nbsp;
The state government is ensuring smooth transportation and crowd control to accommodate the massive influx of devotees, particularly with the upcoming Mauni Amavasya on January 29, which is expected to draw around 45 crore people.
The 2025 Maha Kumbh Mela will be a historic event for India, not just for its spiritual significance but also for the meticulous planning and security arrangements to ensure a safe and peaceful gathering for millions of devotees.
