Varanasi, Mar 12 (UNI) Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Wednesday conducted an inspection of the international cricket stadium at Ganjari Rajatalab during his visit to Varanasi.
The CM reviewed the stadium model and assessed the ongoing construction work, emphasising the importance of maintaining quality and completing the project within the stipulated time frame.
