Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, on Friday, said that the government had not only brought Lord Ram, but had also ensured Ram naam satya of all those who threaten the safety of women and traders in Uttar Pradesh.  Addressing a huge public rally in Aligarh to seek votes for Bharatiya Janata Partys Lok Sabha candidate Satish Kumar Gautam, Yogi remarked: The dream you saw 10 years ago has become a reality today. The daughters and businessmen, who did not venture out of their houses for fear of criminals in the past, are roaming around freely at night today. It has been possible because of your single vote. You must realise the power of one vote. The chief minister also paid his respects to Baba Khereshwar Mahadev of Khereshwar temple, historical Sarovar Dharnidhar and the land of great Chandravanshi kings on the occasion. He paid tributes to Shiv Narayan Pandit, Mangala Singh and Mahtab Singh, who led the first freedom struggle of 1857. He remarked: Living life in the spirit of Lord Ram is paramount; every task is accomplished by invoking his name. Simultaneously, individuals who endanger societal security will face serious repercussions. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said that these elections marked a historic milestone where speculation about the outcome was unnecessary as the results were known to all. Aligarh will go to polls in the second phase. The chief minister added, This achievement is a testament to the transformative endeavours spearheaded by Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the past decade. Once again, the voice of the Modi government resounds loudly across the country, spanning from the North to the South and from the East to the West, for the third time. He highlighted, Under Prime Minister Narendra Modi leadership, we witness the emergence of a rejuvenated India. Our nations stature has ascended globally, our borders are fortified and the scourges of terrorism and Naxalism have been eradicated. Concurrently, significant infrastructural developments are underway nationwide. The highway from Ghaziabad to Aligarh has expanded to six lanes, a cement factory has been established, and the state now enjoys peace without riots and curfews. The revered kanwar yatra proceeds with grandeur while the artisans of Aligarh gain international acclaim. Progress continues as plans for the Defence Industrial Corridor in Aligarh advance, and the establishment of a university in honour of Raja Mahendra Pratap Singh is in motion. Moreover, completing the Atal Residential School for labourers and orphaned children is a testament to world-class infrastructure. All these achievements are a testament to the power of a single vote. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath emphasised that Indian festivals have profound historical significance, and they are not just festivities. He pointed to the transformation of Holi celebrations in Barsana and Vrindavan, which have evolved into world-class events attracting millions. Previously, the turnout was modest, with only 20,000 to 25,000 attendees before 2017, whereas this year witnessed a staggering attendance of 10 lakh in Barsana alone, he said. Chief Minister Yogi underscored the realisation of long-standing dreams, such as Ram Lalla participating in Holi festivities in Ayodhya after centuries. These aspirations, once considered distant dreams, have now materialised, he said.  He reiterated Prime Minister Narendra Modis vision of a developed India, contingent upon the progress of Uttar Pradesh, particularly cities like Aligarh, symbolised by the blooming lotus of prosperity. Emphasising the pivotal role of each vote, Chief Minister Yogi cautioned the voters against the repercussions of misguided choices, recalling past episodes of corruption and societal unrest. He urged the citizens to vote wisely, envisioning India as the worlds third-largest economy within three years.
