DW BUREAU / Deoria

Deoria (UP) Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Sunday said India is poised to become the world's third-largest economy during Prime Minister Narendra Modi's third term. Addressing the Nari Shakti Vandan programme held at the Sugar Mill Ground here, Adityanath said, "With India becoming the third-largest economy, the income of every individual in the country will rise, leading to enhanced prosperity in the lives of people."

During the programme, the chief minister inaugurated and laid the foundation stone of 673 development projects worth Rs 679 crore.

Adityanath said the entire nation is committed to realising the vision of a "Viksit Bharat" (developed India), with widespread support for "Phir ek baar Modi sarkar" (Modi government once again).

He expressed confidence that the NDA would secure more than 400 hundred seats in the Lok Sabha elections.

The chief minister said the dream of having Ram Lalla seated in the grand temple in Ayodhya, cherished by our ancestors, has finally come true.

"The Congress and the SP governments would never have been able to accomplish this task (Ram temple construction). Double engine government means the development of the state and the country while honouring our heritage," he said.

Adityanath highlighted that Deoria, once renowned as a sugar bowl in the country, suffered due to the negligence of previous administrations, causing Deoria and Kushinagar to fall behind.
