Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to inaugurate a three-day-long Amrit Mahotsav organised by the Union Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs at Indira Gandhi Pratishthan in Gomti Nagar area of Lucknow on October 5.
On the occasion, the prime minister will hand over the keys to the beneficiaries of PM Awas Yojana-Urban.
Governor Anandiben Patel and Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath would be present in the function along with Union Minister for Urban Development Hardeep Singh Puri.
The programme based on the theme 'Changing Urban Environment' will be organised from October 5 to 7 and development in all cities of the state will be demonstrated through exhibition in the programme.
The prime minister will fly into Lucknow around 11 am on October 5 and will stay in the city for around three hours. Earlier the programme was scheduled to be held from September 26 to 28 and the prime minister was slated to visit Lucknow on September 26 to inaugurate the programme.
But it was then postponed to September 28 but that too was canceled due to the prime minister’s visit to the United States.
Following this, the Urban Development ministry postponed the programme to October 5.
