Strong dialogue between govt, public representatives key to quality development: UP CM
Adityanath held a high-level review meeting with public representatives of Ayodhya and Devipatan divisions, and senior officials of the Public Works Department, and the Tourism and Culture Department at his official residence on Saturday, the UP government said in a statement.
The objective of the meeting was to establish direct communication with public representatives and ensure the speed and quality of development works in accordance with their priorities and public expectations.
He directed officials to implement this dialogue model across the state so that the mantra of "Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas" and "Sabka Vishwas" is reflected in every scheme and project.
In the meeting, the chief minister said that the state government does not stop at just making schemes but also believes in implementing them on the ground and ensuring the public gets their benefits.
He said, "Strong dialogue between the government and public representatives is necessary to achieve this goal."
Adityanath said the state government provides separate financial resources to urban bodies and is giving a new direction to the overall development of cities through the CM Grid Scheme.
He further directed that municipal corporations and municipal bodies must include local public representatives while reviewing development schemes in their respective areas.
He emphasised that special attention should be given to municipal body areas where rural regions have been incorporated.
The chief minister said that the width of roads in the state is being increased from 3.5 metres to 5 metres. This will not only make traffic safer and smoother but will also improve access for emergency services like ambulances and fire brigades.
The Tourism and Culture Department was directed to identify at least one tourist spot in each assembly constituency of the state and develop public facilities along with beautification there.
The chief minister also directed that proposals submitted by public representatives should be included in schemes on a priority basis, the statement said.

Tired of waiting for repairs, UP residents hold 'tehravi' for broken Hakikat Nagar road
Saharanpur , Fed up with a year-long delay in repairs, residents here held a "memorial service" for their broken road on Tuesday. Tired of waiting for repairs, UP residents hold 'tehravi' for broken Hakikat Nagar road The unusual protest was announced a day earlier on social media with a tongue-in-cheek obituary: "With deep sorrow, we inform you that our beloved Hakikat Nagar Road departed for its heavenly abode last year, as per the wishes of the municipal corporation. "A condolence meeting for the eternal peace of this road's soul will be held on August 12, 2025, Tuesday. "Bereaved: all traders and residents of Hakikat Nagar, as well as the grieving contractor, tender company, municipal corporation, and political leaders." On Tuesday, locals gathered for the "tehravi" with a large photograph of the road, covered it with a white sheet, and offered floral tributes. Women, senior citizens and traders joined in, treating the event with the trappings of an actual condolence meeting. Hakikat Nagar Vyapar Mandal president Amit Sethi told PTI that the road, connecting the Collectorate to the Civil Courts, was being built under the Chief Minister's Grid Scheme for the past 10 months. But on July 31, work was abruptly halted after the construction company was blacklisted for allegedly failing to meet quality standards. "When we raised the issue with the mayor and officials, they assured us that within eight days they would provide an alternative arrangement for the sewage water that's backing up and laying a thin layer on the road so that children, women, and the elderly don't get injured. They also promised to remove the construction debris. But after ten days, with no sign of work, we had no choice but to organise this condolence meeting," Sethi said. He added that the road is a key route, regularly used by the district magistrate, SSP, and tehsildar, yet it has been neglected despite a budget of over ₹20 crore being sanctioned.
