Recruitment of forest inspectors fair and transparent: Yogi
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath distributed appointment letters to 701 newly selected forest inspectors through the Uttar Pradesh Subordinate Services Selection Commission (UPSSSC).
The Uttar Pradesh government on Friday notified Vrindavan and Barsana in Mathura district as pilgrim spots, where sale of eggs, non-vegetarian food and liquor would now be banned.
Religious Affairs Minister Laxmi Narayan Chowdhary said that the decision was taken by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.
Quoting the Bhagwad Gita, he said that Lord Krishna had said in the religious text that people coming to his abode should not have any difficulty and this has inspired the BJP government to take this decision. He also announced that several developmental and infrastructure works like roads, sewerage system, LED street lights would be taken up soon.
