Modi to gift projects worth over Rs 400 Cr to Varanasi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is all set to gift 65 new projects worth Rs 421.54 crore to the people of Varanasi, which is his parliamentary constituency, on his next visit to the holy city.

The new gifts from the Prime Minister include a Central Institute for Petrochemicals Engineering and Technology (CIPET).

Though the final date of the prime minister’s visit has not yet been finalised, official sources said that he could visit his constituency later this month.

Altogether, 75 projects worth over Rs 736 crore are awaiting inauguration in Varanasi.

During his visit to Varanasi earlier this week, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath reviewed details on all completed and on-going projects at a meeting with officials.

He inspected ‘Rudraksh’, the International Convention Centre, constructed with a budget of Rs 186 crore as a symbol of India-Japan friendship.
