CM Yogi took command of preparations
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath reached Meerut a day before the Prime Minister’s program. He inspected various places for about one and a half hours. During this, he visited Shatabdinagar Metro Station, Meerut South Station and the public meeting place in Mohiuddinpur.
During the inspection, the Chief Minister examined the arrangements closely. He gave clear instructions to the officials that there should not be any jam under any circumstances during the program. He said that all the resources and forces available should be deployed at their full capacity so that the general public and workers do not face any kind of inconvenience.
Strict instructions on jam and disorder
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath paid special attention to the traffic system during the inspection. He told the officials that there should be no traffic jam on the roads during the program. For this, route diversion and deployment of adequate police force should be ensured in advance.
He also directed that the workers and common people coming to the public meeting should be taken to the venue on time. If people arrive on time, the crowd will not grow together and chances of chaos will be less. A clear message was given to the administration that the success of the program will depend on the strength of the systems.
Special preparations at Shatabdinagar station
When the Chief Minister reached Shatabdi Nagar station, he inspected the platform from where the Prime Minister will flag off Meerut Metro and NaMo Bharat on Sunday. This platform has been built near the escalators so that the program can be conducted smoothly.
The CM roamed the platform and also saw the stalls there. He examined the entire system carefully and asked the officials to ensure necessary improvements. The station has been specially decorated to welcome the Prime Minister. Special attention has been paid to cleanliness, safety and facilities so that passengers can get a world-class experience.
Review of Meerut South Station and public meeting place
After reaching Shatabdinagar by helicopter, the Chief Minister also went to the public meeting place in Mohiuddinpur. There he held a review meeting with police and administrative officials. Issues like security, seating arrangement, availability of water and food were discussed in detail in the meeting.
After this he also reached Meerut South Station by road. Here also he took stock of the preparations. After talking to the officials of the organization and the public representatives, he asked how many workers would attend the public meeting and how many buses and other vehicles they would come by. He asked to ensure that there is proper arrangement for seating and necessary facilities for every worker.
Special arrangements for workers
The Chief Minister clearly said that proper arrangements for water and food should be made for the workers coming to the public meeting. Considering the heat and crowd, it is important that no one is inconvenienced. He also said that all the workers should be reached to the site on time so that there is no additional pressure on the traffic.
Appreciation of Rapid Rail System
During the inspection, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath praised the country’s first regional rapid rail system. He described it as world class. He said that this project will give a new impetus to the development of not only Meerut but the entire region.
The extension of Namo Bharat train will strengthen connectivity between Delhi and Meerut. This will provide relief to thousands of people traveling daily. Along with saving time, travel will be more comfortable and safe.
New direction for development of Meerut
This expansion of Meerut Metro and Namo Bharat will strengthen the infrastructure of the city. People were demanding better public transport for a long time. Now this demand seems to be fulfilled. This will also create new opportunities for employment, business and investment.
High-speed connectivity has a direct impact on the local economy. When travel is easier, access to industry, education and health services is also better. For a fast-growing city like Meerut, this project has been prepared keeping in mind the future needs.
Prime Minister’s address at public meeting
After the inauguration the Prime Minister will address the public meeting. It is expected that he will speak on the development, infrastructure and future plans of the area. A large number of people are likely to attend. For this reason, special arrangements for security and traffic have been made.
The journey will be completed in 50 minutes
The biggest advantage of this project is that now a long journey can be completed in a very short time. Where earlier it used to take hours, now the same distance will be covered in about 50 minutes. This will provide great relief to those commuting for work daily.
Along with saving time, fuel consumption will also reduce. The environment will also benefit from this. Modern metro and rapid rail systems are considered the future of urban transportation.
