Varanasi on development pedestal

Being the parliamentary constituency of the top Executive of the country, Varanasi is bound to see the light of the day. It is the parliamentary constituency of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Before being PM’s parliamentary constituency, Varanasi is known all over the world as the holiest city in India. It is also the religious and cultural centre of the country. Above all, Varanasi is the abode of Lord Shiva (Baba Vishwanath). As far as the development of the Varanasi is concerned, it first needs cleanliness then development. It is also known for narrow lanes. First of all, Prime Minister Narendra Modi should have ordered the civic body of Varanasi to keep the city neat and clean. Varanasi has also historical importance. The Ganges is said to be dirty in Varanasi and despite crores of rupees spent on her cleanliness, she remained dirty. PM Modi during the tour of his constituency should have taken serious note of it. PM has launched a bouquet of development projects and dedicated to the nation a Trade Facilitation Centre and Crafts Museum for weavers and artisans in Varanasi. It will certainly boost cultural heritage of the city and help increase the income of weavers and artisans. About 95,500 weavers in his constituency will be benefited. This Trade Facilitation Centre has been named after Deen Dayal Upadhya. PM's visit to Varanasi will certainly bring happiness and well-being for the weavers and craftsmen. Weavers and craftsmen will be economically benefited by several projects launched by the PM during his tour of the constituency. Being the VVIP constituency of the nation, Varanasi deserves all development projects' execution properly and speedily. By visiting Varanasi, PM Modi has shown that he is committed to the development of Kashi whom he had treated as his mother and on whose call he fought Lok Sabha elections from Varanasi as Prime Ministerial candidate. Undoubtedly, PM is development oriented and he keeps the issue of progress and peace as the top priority of his government. PM has also dedicated to the nation a state of the art Trade facilitation Centre named Deendayal Hast Kala Sankul and inaugurated the Crafts Museum.Craftsmen can now showcase their work at a global level and sell their crafts directly to buyers as well as preserve their heritage. PM also tried his hand at the digital interactive section that showcases the art and culture of Varanasi. Of special interest was the digital carpet in the carpet weaving display section of the Museum. Prime Minister had rightly said that the solution to every problem lies in development.He said that other parties are focused on only winning the elections, the goal of his government is the welfare of the poor. The Deen Dayal Hast Kala Sankul is an indispensable and necessary step to help weavers and artisans of Varanasi to preserve their heritage while integrating into the Global economy. This state of the art facility will certainly prove to be a boon for many. PM Modi has rightly criticized the previous UPA govt. for its lethargic approach towards development that resulted in great loss of time and money of the country.
