Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said that the Culture and Housing departments should coordinate with different development authorities to prepare an action plan for creating a dedicated food street in every city where people may get a wide variety of food belonging to different states and societies.
Referring to the recently held Kashi- Sangamam, the chief minister said that the initiative aimed at bringing people of two diverse cultures together to help them know and understand each other better and unite them. Twelve groups from Tamil Nadu were in Kashi for a month. The groups included students, teachers, religious leaders, artists, handicraftsmen, farmers and labourers. They visited Prayagraj and Ayodhya. This cultural exchange cleared the Tamils misconceptions about Uttar Pradesh and North India which they had formed due to negative propaganda run by some vested interests. It has exposed those propagandists. Every Tamil who came to the Kashi-Tamil Sangamam was overwhelmed by the hospitality of the people of UP< he remarked.
