Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav said that Indian culture, rooted in the philosophy of ‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’ (the world is one family), considers the entire world a single family. Under the leadership and guidance of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, the state government is committed to working for the welfare and well-being of all based on this principle.
Liquor Prohibition has been enforced to ensure that the family environment remains healthy and that hard-earned money is spent in the family's interest. Religious towns carry a sense of sanctity, and hence, prohibition has been implemented in 19 pilgrimage sites across the state to preserve their spiritual dignity.
Chief Minister Dr. Yadav was addressing a civic felicitation ceremony held in Datia to honor the implementation of prohibition in the town, the abode of Goddess Pitambara. During the event, public representatives and citizens expressed their gratitude and admiration for Dr. Yadav’s decision to enforce liquor prohibition in Datia.
Dr. Yadav said that places across the state blessed by the presence of the Goddess, including Datia, will be developed as ‘Devi Lok’ (Abode of the Goddess). Similarly, all places in the state associated with Lord Ram, including Chitrakoot, are being upgraded under the Shri Ram Van Path Gaman Marg initiative. Likewise, the budget also includes provisions to develop sites related to the divine plays (leelas) of Lord Krishna as pilgrimage destinations.
