Fulfilling its promises, the Yogi Adityanath government has opened the doors to development in Milkipur assembly constituency. In a major boost to tourism and cultural heritage, Rs 106.60 lakh is being spent on beautification of Gahnag Baba Dham in Amani Ganj Vikas Khand’s Ram Patti.
With the Ram temple now completed, efforts are accelerating to develop and restore all historical and spiritual sites across the district. During the Milkipur by-election, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath had personally assured the beautification of Gahnag Baba Dham, and now the work has officially begun.
Additionally, approvals for road construction and school infrastructure projects in Milkipur had already been granted, and these projects are currently under development.
Gahnag Baba Dham is a major religious site that attracts lakhs of devotees during annual fairs. Considering the large influx of visitors, a tourism development plan has been put in place. The Ayodhya Teerth Vikas Parishad, responsible for preserving and enhancing sacred sites, is overseeing the beautification project.
Established a year ago under the leadership of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, the council aims to develop and promote Uttar Pradesh’s rich spiritual heritage.
According to Santosh Sharma, CEO of Ayodhya Teerth Vikas Parishad, Gahnag Baba Dham was inspected, and a proposal was sent for approval. After receiving approval, the development work has begun.
The project includes beautification of the religious site and transforming the pond into a traditional kund. Additionally, facilities for visitors, such as sheds, benches, drinking water, and restrooms, will be constructed.
