Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath will attend a state-level ceremony in Ayodhya on Tuesday to honour Anganwadi workers and helpers from across the state.
Around 12,000 to 15,000 Anganwadi workers and helpers from the Ayodhya division are expected to participate in the programme. Officials said around 2,000 participants each are likely to attend from Ambedkar Nagar, Amethi, Barabanki, Sultanpur, Basti and Gonda.
The programme will be held at the Government Inter College ground and telecast across Uttar Pradesh, enabling people in different districts to follow the state-level ceremony.
After the event, Adityanath is scheduled to visit Hanumangarhi and the Shri Ram Temple in Ayodhya.
District Magistrate Shashank Tripathi said the departmental minister and public representatives would also attend the programme. Women associated with Self-Help Groups (SHGs) and involved in ration distribution activities are also expected to participate.
Tripathi said similar programmes would be organised simultaneously in all districts of Uttar Pradesh, while the main state-level ceremony would be held in Ayodhya in the presence of the Chief Minister.
Extensive arrangements have been made for the programme, with officials working to complete preparations ahead of the Chief Minister’s visit.
In a post on X, Adityanath said the programme would recognise the contributions of Anganwadi workers, helpers, meritorious children and outstanding supervisors. Appointment letters would also be distributed to newly appointed Anganwadi workers and helpers.
“In the beloved city of Maryada Purushottam Lord Shri Ram, Ayodhya Ji, anganwadi workers, helpers, meritorious children, and outstanding supervisors will be honoured, and appointment letters will be distributed to newly appointed anganwadi workers and helpers,” Adityanath said.
“This journey of prosperity through labour and empowerment through service will infuse new energy into the creation of a ‘Viksit Uttar Pradesh’,” he added.
The Chief Minister also highlighted the two-day UP Textile Conclave-2026, which will begin in Lucknow on Tuesday. He said several initiatives would be launched as part of efforts to develop Uttar Pradesh into a global hub for the textile industry.
“The ‘UP Tex Mitra’ portal, along with schemes to promote the welfare of weavers, skill development, investment, and entrepreneurship, will connect the state’s rich textile heritage to modern capabilities,” Adityanath said.
