"We need to make sure that the state has a steady supply of electricity during this holiday season. In order to accomplish this, the Power Corporation should make all required preparations," Yogi Adityanath said. He also emphasized how crucial it is to keep trauma and emergency medical services uninterrupted and guarantee that physicians are easily accessible in both urban and rural locations.

No Power Cut During Festivals

Chief Minister Adityanath noted the joyful spirit of recent festivals like Raksha Bandhan, Shri Krishna Janmashtami, Durga Puja, Dussehra, Eid, Bakrid, Barawafat, and Muharram. He emphasized that the state government should avoid disrupting this festive atmosphere with frequent power cuts and stressed the importance of maintaining a cooperative, team-oriented culture.

Firecracker Shops Away from Crowds

Firecracker shops and warehouses should be situated far from inhabited areas, and proper arrangements should be made for swift action in case of any mishappenings. Open areas are ideal for firecracker shops. The CM stated that licenses and NOCs should be issued to these shops promptly, and strict action should be taken against any illegal firecracker storage.

CM Yogi Adityanath also urged stronger social media vigilance, instructing officials to take strict action against anyone attempting to disrupt peace. He ordered teams in each area to regularly monitor these platforms.
