He said that the dignitaries coming for the consecration ceremony should get better hospitality in Ayodhya. The resting place of each VVIP should be selected in advance. Considering the weather, it is possible that some guests may arrive a day or two earlier, in such a situation, better arrangements should be made for their stay.
Chief Minister Yogi directed that there are hotels and dharamshalas in Ayodhya. Home stay arrangements are also available. There is a need to further increase the number of tent cities. On the lines of Kumbh, prepare a grand tent city on 25-50 acres in Ayodhya. After January 22, Ram devotees from all over the world will arrive in Ayodhya. For their convenience, signage in different languages should be installed throughout the city. Signage should be in the languages included in the 8th Schedule of the Constitution and 06 languages of the United Nations.
The Chief Minister said that cleanliness is a very important subject in hospitality. Take public cooperation in this. There should be no dust or filth on major roads or streets like Dharma Path, Janmabhoomi Path, Bhakti Path, Ram Path. There are dustbins placed at various places. There should be arrangements for waste management. Currently, more than 3800 sanitation workers are deployed, the number of employees should be increased by 1500 more. We all will have to make efforts to make Ayodhya a banned polythene free city. Run a special campaign related to cleanliness in the city from 14th January. Dirt should not be seen anywhere in the city.
