Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India], June 22 (HBTV): Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath expressed happiness that a government medical college in Auraiya would be named after Lokmata Ahilyabai Holkar.

The Chief Minister criticised the previous Samajwadi Party-led government for renaming a degree college in Auraiya.

‘There was a degree college in Auraiya named after Lokmata Ahilyabai Holkar. The Samajwadi Party government had changed the name of that degree college. Today, I am happy to announce that in the same Auraiya, we will name the government medical college after Lokmata Ahilyabai Holkar,’ CM Yogi said.

Earlier, Yogi Adityanath inaugurated the National Seminar–2025 on Harmony with Nature and Sustainable Development on Thursday.

He emphasised that achieving the country’s goal of net zero emissions by 2070 would require the collective participation of all citizens, not just government efforts.

‘Prime Minister Narendra Modi assured the world that India will achieve the target of net zero by 2070. But the task of achieving this target is not just at the government level but through the collective efforts of all of us... Today, a national seminar has also been organised here regarding this program, after which the vision is how we can create harmony with nature and ensure sustainable development...’ Yogi said while addressing the gathering.

Meanwhile, earlier in the day, the Chief Minister directed officials in storm-affected districts to ensure timely and effective relief measures in view of storms, rain, and hailstorms.

He instructed officials to visit affected areas, conduct surveys, and closely monitor the relief operations. In cases of human or animal casualties due to lightning, storms, or other rain-related incidents, immediate distribution of relief funds to affected families was directed. He also stressed that proper medical treatment should be provided to the injured.

Further instructions were issued to assess crop damage through surveys and submit reports to the government for necessary action. The Chief Minister also directed that proper drainage arrangements be made on a priority basis in waterlogged areas.
