LUCKNOW: The Uttar Pradesh government will showcase the development work done amid various challenges, the state’s tryst with the Covid-19 pandemic outbreak and how it ensured best health facilities and social security for its citizens in the crisis by depicting its achievements in the 2021 Republic Day parade in the state capital.
The tableau of the state information department in the Republic Day parade will be designed to highlight the government’s achievements in law and order, economic and social progress, 2018 investors’ summit, implementation of the PM Garib Kalyan Rozgar scheme, employment generation and progress in the field of agriculture.
On Saturday, chief minister Yogi Adityanath said the theme for the UP information department’s tableau in the Republic Day parade in Lucknow, will be ‘Chunautiyon ke Beech Badhta UP’ (UP progressing amid challenges).
The tableau will also showcase the efficient handling of the Covid-19 pandemic and the massive efforts to provide healthcare facilities and social security to citizens during the crisis that turned out to be a model across the country and changed the perspective about the state.
This tableau will be different from the state’s entry for the national Republic Day parade held in New Delhi.
In 2019, UP’s entry, themed ‘Sarva Dharma Sama Bhav’ had won the second prize. It displayed UP’s cultural and religious tourism and showcased Sufi shrines like Dewa Sharif and Varanasi cultural stalwarts classical singer Girijia Devi and shehnai maestro Ustad Bismillah Khan.
