Ghaziabad (Uttar Pradesh) [India], March 2 (ANI): Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami on Sunday said that Uttarakhand–often referred to as ‘Devbhoomi’–is making continuous efforts to preserve and promote its rich cultural heritage, taking inspiration from the construction of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya.
“…The work of laying the foundation of a new cultural renaissance in the country by building a grand and divine temple of Lord Ram in Ayodhya has been accomplished under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi. Along with this, our local economy is also getting a boost through initiatives like ‘Vocal for Local’ and ‘Make in India’. Taking inspiration from this, continuous efforts are being made to preserve cultural heritage in Devbhoomi Uttarakhand,” he said.
Dhami participated in the Uttarayani-Makarain Mahotsav, which the Mountain Migrant Jan-Kalyan Samiti organised in Ghaziabad.
The Chief Minister warmly welcomed the public to the Uttaraini-Makarain Mahotsav and said that this festival is a confluence of Uttarakhand’s culture, costumes, food, and belongingness.
CM Dhami said the work done by the organisers to preserve and promote our rich heritage is commendable. He said that such festivals, along with promoting our cultural heritage, folk art, and folk music, also work to tie the Uttarakhandi migrants in a thread of love.
Traditional handicrafts, organic products and Uttarakhandi cuisine were displayed in the festival. The Chief Minister appealed to everyone to participate in the development of their ancestral village, the mountains located in Uttarakhand and said that by investing in their ancestral land, self-employment and small industries have to be promoted to take their birthplace forward.
He said that development works are being carried forward in many areas, such as road, drinking water, education, health, rail, and air connectivity in the state, and that works are also being done in many areas, like Kedarnath reconstruction work, the master plan of Lord Badri Vishal’s complex, all-weather roads in all four Dhams, and a circuit of temples under Mansakhand Mandir Mala Mission.
