Yogi Adityanath’s Address

He emphasized that double-engine governments, like those in Tripura and Uttar Pradesh, ensure that developmental works reach the grassroots level, contributing to a Viksit and Atmanirbhar Bharat. He praised the Tripura government’s efforts in creating a favorable development environment and stressed that cooperation from the people is crucial. He also highlighted the role of Sanatan religion in respecting all religions and noted that the country’s progress is driven by Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership.
