"As envisioned by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the overall development of 'Dharmanagari' is the government's top priority, and the people of the country and the world are eager to see a 'Divya, Bhavya, Navya Ayodhya' (grand new Ayodhya)," Mr. Adityanath said.
Asking the officials to focus on sustainability, Mr. Adityanath said the current urban population of Ayodhya was about 5.5 lakh and as it was estimated to reach 11-12 lakh by 2031.
"In such a situation, the master plan of this important city has so far been prepared keeping in mind the needs of the future," he said and highlighted that the entire project should be built around ease of living.
