Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to embark on a day-long visit to Uttar Pradesh, where he will lay the foundation stone for the Shri Kalki Dham Temple in Sambhal district. The inauguration ceremony is organized by the Shri Kalki Dham Nirman Trust, led by Chairman Acharya Pramod Krishnam, who was recently expelled from the Congress party for alleged “anti-party remarks.”
The announcement of PM Modi’s visit and participation in the temple’s foundation-laying ceremony was made through an official statement. The event is scheduled for Monday, with the Prime Minister expected to arrive at around 10:25 am. During the ceremony, PM Modi will personally place the main stone in the sanctum sanctorum of Shri Kalki Dham.
Acharya Pramod Krishnam expressed pride in hosting PM Modi for the temple’s foundation, stating, “It is a matter of pride for us that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be laying the foundation of Shri Kalki Dham today.” The inauguration, set for 10:30 am, is anticipated to witness the presence of numerous saints, religious leaders, and other dignitaries.
The temple project, led by Shri Kalki Dham Nirman Trust, has garnered attention due to the expulsion of its chairman, Acharya Pramod Krishnam, from the Congress party. His expulsion came shortly after a meeting with PM Modi, during which he extended an invitation to the Prime Minister to inaugurate the temple.
In addition to the temple inauguration, PM Modi is expected to inaugurate 14,000 projects collectively valued at over ₹10 lakh crore during the fourth ground-breaking ceremony. These projects, stemming from investment proposals received during the UP Global Investors Summit 2023, span diverse sectors such as manufacturing, renewable energy, information technology (IT), food processing, housing, real estate, hospitality, entertainment, and education.
The ceremony, set to take place around 1:45 pm, will attract approximately 5,000 participants, including industrialists, delegates from leading global and Indian companies, ambassadors, high commissioners, and other distinguished guests. PM Modi’s visit and the series of inaugurations underscore the government’s commitment to promoting economic growth and development in Uttar Pradesh.
