Mathura: The government would leave no stone unturned to ensure international recognition to the Latthmaar Holi of Barsana, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said here today. Adityanath is in Mathura to celebrate Holi accompanied by Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar.

Speaking at the occasion here, the UP chief minister expressed his commitment to develop “Brij bhumi”. “A provision of Rs 100 crore has been made in the budget for Braj Tirth Vikas Parishad,” he said, adding that there would be no dearth of funds for the development of Radhakund, Nandgaon, Gokul, Vrindavan and Barsana.

Adityanath said his government was committed to promote tourism in the state. After paying obeisance at the Sri Krishna Janmasthan temple, he said, “I am a devout Hindu and everybody has the right to express his faith.”  “I would continue to hold such programmes in future also, as I am proud of my tradition,” he added.
