Conduct on-ground review of progress in UP's aspirational districts: Yogi

Lucknow, May 7 (UNI) Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Wednesday directed the senior officials to conduct on-ground assessments of the progress made in Uttar Pradesh's aspirational districts and development blocks.
During a high-level review meeting, the CM directed eight Principal Secretary and Secretary-level officers to conduct a three-day visit to the eight aspirational districts. "Likewise, 108 Special Secretary-level officers will be assigned to inspect progress in 108 aspirational development blocks. The visits aim to evaluate the tangible changes from the inception of these initiatives to the present and compile detailed reports. The CM Office will finalise the list of designated officers," he said.
He emphasised that the government's priority, aligned with NITI Aayog's vision, is to ensure that development reaches the last person in the queue. Describing the programmes as an embodiment of the 'Antyodaya' philosophy, he stressed the need for continuous monitoring and outcome-driven strategies to accelerate progress at district and block levels.
