Lucknow, Nov 01 (HS): Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath

has positioned Ayodhya as a model for his administration, touting a new

dawn of development and cultural renaissance. According to the state

administration, the old city, which was formerly plagued by administrative

neglect and continuous strife, has effectively combined its spiritual legacy

with contemporary infrastructure to become a global cultural attraction.

Tourism numbers have increased substantially in recent years, owing to the

dedication of the great Ram Mandir. This influx has increased local company

income, considerably enlarged the hospitality industry, and created thousands

of new jobs.

Under Yogi Adityanath, Ayodhya is undertaking a thorough

urban and cultural renovation aiming at restoring its old grandeur while

incorporating contemporary infrastructure. Operating under a double-engine

administration in collaboration with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the state

has launched a number of high-profile public works and spiritual tourist

initiatives.

The city moved from rudimentary roads to multi-lane networks, notably the

high-capacity Rampath. Air connectivity has been restored thanks to the newly

constructed Maharishi Valmiki International Airport. The double-engine

government method (coordination between national and state leadership)

continues to use Ayodhya as a structural template to undertake comparable

heritage-driven development in other key cultural sites in Uttar Pradesh,

including Kashi, Mathura-Vrindavan, and Prayagraj.

In a post on X,

he mentioned, “Ayodhya is the birthplace of the Ayodhya civilization, the

lifeblood of culture, and the eternal flame of faith. Yet, before the year

2017, this divine city was compelled to endure the caustic sting of neglect,

disorder, and appeasement. Pilgrims' journeys were arduous, the city's

infrastructure dilapidated, and the prospects of local families limited. Under

the illustrious leadership of the Honorable Prime Minister Shri @narendramodi

ji, Ayodhya ji has been infused with a new expanse of modern development that

restores its ancient dignity. From the grand Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Temple to Ram

Path, Dharma Path, the international airport, and the modern railway station,

every construction is tied to the convenience of pilgrims and the glory of Ram

Nagari. The light of this transformation is reaching the homes and courtyards

of Ayodhya's residents. Rising tourism is bolstering trade, new opportunities

are linking youth to employment, and local families are nurturing fresh hopes

of prosperity.”

“Ayodhya, once

awaiting development, is today scripting a new chapter of progress alongside

its heritage. This center of faith, identity, and worship for countless

Sanatanis has become a radiant symbol of cultural consciousness and prosperity,

embodying the resolve of 'Developed India-Developed Uttar Pradesh.'Jai Jai Shri

Ram,” he added.
