In a fresh impetus to tourism in and around the Agra region, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav on Thursday asked officials to complete all ground work for the international airport project at Agra and to chalk out a plan to encourage tourist influx in the Braj area.
Chairing a high-level meeting in Lucknow, the chief minister asked officials to work on a time-bound plan for the Mathura, Agra and Vrindavan area.
Specifically asking for development of infrastructure in the Braj area, Akhilesh said the pathways around Govardhan and the route on which "parikrama" (circumambulation) of the shrine should be improved as early as possible and directed the chief secretary to submit a report to his office within a month.
“Not only the infrastructure, facilities for tourists and devouts should also be improved," he told officials at the meeting of the Agra, Mathura and Vrindavan Development Authorities.
