The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, today interacted with 14 newly-elected BJP Mayors of municipal corporations in Uttar Pradesh.
The mayors called on the Prime Minister in New Delhi this morning. Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh Yogi Adityanath and the State BJP President Dr. Mahendra Nath Pandey were also present. Three elected local government representatives from Amethi district, also attended the meeting.
During the lively interaction, the Prime Minister congratulated the mayors, the State BJP leadership and karyakartas, for the impressive victory in the elections to local bodies. He emphasized the importance of Jan Bhaagidaari in local governance, and urged the mayors to work hard for the development of their cities.
Later the Prime Minister shared a glimpse of his thoughts and vision for each of the newly elected mayors, and their respective cities, through a series of personalized tweets. Each tweet contained an individual photograph with the mayor, and some thoughts on his or her specific city.
The newly elected peoples’ representatives were touched by the Prime Minister’s gesture, and expressed their resolve to perform their duties to the best of their abilities.
