'One District, One Mafia' had become UP's identity before 2017, says CM Yogi
Digital Desk | Lucknow, Sep 8 (IANS) Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Tuesday said the situation in the state before 2017 was marked by poor law and order, widespread criminal activities, and the dominance of mafia elements, with 'One District, One Mafia' becoming its identity. Addressing the two-day 'UP Textile Conclave-2026', the Chief Minister welcomed entrepreneurs, investors, exporters, traditional weavers, handloom operators, industry representatives, and young people associated with the textile sector. First of all, I extend a heartfelt welcome and greetings to all the distinguished entrepreneurs, investors and exporters from the textile sector across the country, as well as traditional weavers, handloom operators, all the dignitaries and young friends who see their future in this sector, he said. Highlighting Uttar Pradesh's long-standing textile traditions, the Chief Minister said the state's textile heritage had historical links with India's cultural and economic development. He said that when gifts of clothing were presented by the King of Kashi at Yudhishthira's Rajasuya Yagya, ancient texts such as the Mahabharata made references to silk and pure cotton garments. Also referring to the period of Lord Ram's exile, he said religious scriptures mention Mata Janaki receiving divine garments at a sage's ashram. The textiles produced in India, particularly those made in Uttar Pradesh, were not only in demand in India but also in markets around the world, he said. If you look at Roman culture or Greek culture, there was a huge demand there as well for these textiles made in India and Uttar Pradesh. This means that the tradition of sending these products from here to other places existed even then, the Chief Minister said. He also highlighted several major textile and manufacturing centres across the state, including Varanasi's silk sarees, Bhadohi's carpets, Lucknow's chikankari, and Kanpur's textile, leather, and industrial manufacturing ecosystem. CM Adityanath also mentioned Agra's footwear and allied manufacturing sector, Sitapur's textile manufacturing capabilities, and Meerut's sports goods industry and the potential for technical textiles. These are not merely textile clusters of Uttar Pradesh. They represent different facets of Uttar Pradesh's textile heritage and industrial capabilities. These different facets visible across different regions draw our attention to the potential of the textile sector in Uttar Pradesh, he said. Recalling the situation in Uttar Pradesh before 2017, Adityanath claimed the state's law and order situation was in disarray and alleged that mafia groups had established parallel systems of governance in several districts. Friends, what the situation in Uttar Pradesh was like before 2017 is not hidden from anyone. Law and order in the state was in disarray, he said. In every district, a parallel government run by the mafia operated. In other words, 'One District, One Mafia' had become the identity of Uttar Pradesh. Across the state, the industries of murder, extortion, illegal occupation, goon tax, and kidnapping were flourishing. Professional mafias and goons operated their own system parallel to the government, he claimed. He further alleged that the prevailing environment had affected the safety of women, traders and potential investors. At that time, neither daughters were safe, nor traders were safe. Investors would come from outside with dreams of doing business and return with a slip of paper from the mafia demanding payment, Adityanath claimed. The Chief Minister also alleged that festivals and celebrations could not be conducted peacefully because of frequent disturbances and riots. No festival or celebration could be held peacefully. In other words, disturbances would begin before the festivities. Across the state, there would be a major riot every third day, with the entire state engulfed in the flames of riots. Major riots took place in Bareilly, Kosi Kalan in Mathura, Muzaffarnagar and Saharanpur on a large scale, he said. He said prolonged curfews and the closure of educational institutions and markets had a direct impact on economic activity. Curfews would remain in place for months. Schools and colleges would be closed. If there was a curfew, the markets would remain closed, and if the markets remained closed, business would inevitably come to a standstill. People could not even leave their homes. And when such a situation exists, the economy cannot move forward. A perception had taken hold, the Chief Minister said. He said Uttar Pradesh had also acquired a negative perception because of poor infrastructure and inadequate lighting in several areas. I always mention this point: before 2017, Uttar Pradesh had come to be perceived as a place where, once the roads became bad and darkness began as soon as evening arrived, you could assume that you had entered the borders of Uttar Pradesh. This was the situation in Uttar Pradesh before 2017, he said.

CM Yogi lays foundation stones for 229 development projects worth Rs 1,051 Cr
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath Thursday extended Shri Krishna Janmashtami greetings to the people of the state from the sacred land of Braj. He inaugurated and laid the foundation stones for 229 development projects worth Rs 1,051 crore, including the Swami Shri Haridas Auditorium at the Gita Research Institute and Rasleela Academy, Vrindavan. These included the inauguration of 62 projects worth more than Rs 540 crore and the foundation laying of 167 projects costing more than Rs 437 crore. In addition, an amount of more than Rs 72 crore was transferred to the accounts of beneficiaries under the housing scheme. Citing the examples of Braj, Ayodhya, Kashi and other places, the Chief Minister stated, Foreign invaders may have demolished temples, but they could never shake our devotion. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath observed that Swami Haridas Ji Maharaj gave devotion the form of music. He transformed music into a spiritual practice and connected it with the consciousness of society. His spiritual discipline performed the remarkable task of connecting even an emperor with the essence of devotion. The great musician Tansen was a disciple of Swami Haridas Ji, he said. For a long time, we tried to view development only through the lens of roads, electricity, water, buildings and industries. In the name of development, our heritage continued to be insulted. Attempts were made to erase the heroes of history from Indian memory. First foreign invaders, and then the British, destroyed our history and historical symbols, but the previous governments crossed all limits in neglecting and disrespecting our heritage. CM Yogi said the heritage and celebrations for which Mathura, Vrindavan, Barsana, Govardhan and the Baldev region are known today were not possible before 2017. Referring to the disturbances during the Jawahar Bagh incident in June 2016, in which 29 people lost their lives, the Chief Minister said that two police officers were also martyred in the incident. Amid such disturbances, who could have imagined celebrations, development, and the preservation of civilization and culture in the state? A nation becomes great by rediscovering its memory, culture and roots. A society that is conscious of its heritage learns from the world and also teaches the world, he added. CM Yogi said Indias history is not merely a history of achievements, but also a history of struggle, preservation, reconstruction and the continuity of Sanatan. Mathura is its greatest example. The Keshav Dev Temple at Shri Krishna Janmabhoomi has endured numerous attacks. Foreign invaders demolished temples, but they could not erase the memory of Shri Krishna and Radharani. Neither did the celebration of Janmashtami stop, nor did the devotion of Vrindavan cease. Neither did the Holi of Barsana come to a halt, nor did the Govardhan Parikrama stop. This is the strength of Sanatan and Braj, he said. CM Yogi added that history records attacks on temples, yet during the same period, saints such as Swami Haridas on the land of Braj developed through spiritual practice a stream of music whose resonance has continued for centuries. It will continue to attract every musician for eternity. Aurangzeb demolished the Kashi Vishwanath Temple, but the tradition never ended. Lokmata Ahilyabai Holkar played a significant role in rebuilding the temple. Today, Kashi Vishwanath Dham is known for its grandeur and modern facilities, he said. In Ayodhya, Babur demolished the grand temple at Shri Ram Janmabhoomi in 1528 and constructed a structure of subjugation in its place, but this did not stop Ram Navami, the Panchkosi, 14 Kosi and 84 Kosi Parikramas, or the Sawan Jhoola Mela. The radiance of Sanatan continued to grow and continued to inspire the spirit of struggle. The result is that a grand temple of Prabhu Shri Ram now stands in Ayodhya. He said that to understand India, one must understand the folk traditions of saints and artists. One must study the revolutionaries and the crores of Indians who kept this civilization alive generation after generation. From Maharaja Suheldev, Lokmata Ahilyabai Holkar, Maharani Lakshmibai, Maharana Pratap, Chhatrapati Shivaji, Guru Gobind Singh and Jagadguru Adi Shankaracharya, a long tradition has continued. Revered saints dedicated their entire lives to public welfare, he added. The Chief Minister further said that heritage is not confined to any physical object but is also present in our temples, languages, literature, music, art, philosophy, mathematics, science, medicine, astronomical knowledge, and folk and knowledge traditions. He said that under the leadership of the Prime Minister, the double-engine government has added new dimensions to this, including heritage, development, faith, economy, tradition and transformation, along with modernity. By developing pilgrimage centres such as Ayodhya, Kashi, Mathura, Vrindavan, Barsana, Govardhan, Nandgaon, Baldev, Vindhyachal, Chitrakoot, Shukteerth, Sambhal, Bareilly, Naimisharanya, Sarnath and Kushinagar, we are promoting the cultural and spiritual advancement of the present and future generations, he said He said that the changing Uttar Pradesh, better connectivity, strong law and order, and world-class infrastructure are evidenced by the fact that 156 crore tourists visited Uttar Pradesh last year. CM conveyed a clear message that India would realize the vision of becoming a developed and self-reliant nation only by remaining connected to its heritage. He emphasized that women, youth, farmers, entrepreneurs, artisans and craftsmen, along with every section of society, must be uplifted for this purpose. CM Yogi remarked that the rule of law is the first condition for this. The Chief Minister said that devotees, tourists and investors will come only when they have confidence in security. Mothers and daughters will step out fearlessly only when they have faith in the administration. During Sawan, 5 crore Kanwar Yatris travelled between Ghaziabad and Haridwar. The number also ran into crores on other routes, he added. CM Yogi said that riots used to continue for months in Bareilly. Rioters were invited to the Chief Ministers residence and honoured. Riots occurred in Muzaffarnagar, Aligarh, Meerut and Lucknow, but for the past nine and a half years Uttar Pradesh has remained free from curfews and riots. Today, celebration is our identity. Lakhs of devotees now visit Mathura and Vrindavan every day. Grand events such as Rangotsav, Vaishnav Kumbh, Durga Puja, Ram Navami, Deepotsav, Shobha Yatras and Mahakumbh are being organised. Earlier, there was apprehension of disturbances before celebrations; now preparations are made before celebrations. India is now organising the largest gatherings of faith with modern arrangements, he added. The Chief Minister said that over the past eight years, the Braj Teerth Vikas Parishad has completed numerous projects worth Rs 1,000 crore. Devotees are being treated with respect through improved security, cleanliness and connectivity. Vrindavan, Barsana, Nandgaon, Govardhan, Radha Kund, Gokul, Baldev, Mathura and other areas are being linked with tourism development. The 84 Kosi and Panchkosi Parikrama routes are being developed, and kunds are being restored. If protection is received from the Honble Supreme Court, the area around Shri Banke Bihari Temple will also witness grand development. Through projects such as the ropeway in Vrindavan, mega parking facilities and the Raya Urban Node in Mathura, efforts have begun to lay a strong foundation for the modern future of Braj, he added. The CM said that the Surdas Brajbhasha Academy has been established with the objective of preserving Braj culture and promoting Brajbhasha. The double-engine government is also preserving, promoting and establishing on the global stage the rich musical and literary heritage of Braj by bringing renowned artists from across the country and abroad onto a common platform. Within the urban limits of Vrindavan itself, Asias largest City Forest (Saubhari Van) is being developed over an area of 400 acres.
