On the third day of the Uttar Pradesh Assembly’s Monsoon Session, a historic 24-hour debate on ‘Vision 2047’ began today, with senior ministers outlining plans for economic growth, social justice, environmental protection, and infrastructure. They reaffirmed the Yogi government’s goal of making Uttar Pradesh the nation’s most developed state by 2047, with targets like zero poverty, world-class infrastructure, and advanced technology.

 

 

The Uttar Pradesh government introduced the Banke Bihari Temple Trust Bill in the Assembly today. The bill stipulates that the trust will have complete rights over the offerings, donations, and all movable and immovable assets of the temple. The trust will comprise 11 nominated members and 7 ex officio members. The government said the trust will preserve the traditions of Swami Haridas, with all customs, festivals, rituals, and ceremonies continuing unchanged. It will set darshan timings, appoint priests, decide salaries, ensure devotee safety, and manage the temple’s administration.

 

 

Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak said that Uttar Pradesh is number one in the country in terms of wheat, milk, and sugar production. Healthcare services have seen remarkable progress, with 80 medical colleges, AIIMS in Raebareli and Gorakhpur, and more than 5,250 MBBS seats. He added that Under the Ayushman Bharat scheme, 5.5 crore health cards have been made. Along with this today, the state boasts the most expressways in the country, four-lane road links to all 75 districts, and improved power supply across all regions.
