Pauri Garhwal (Uttarakhand) [India], February 8 (ANI): Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, along with Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami, participated in a program at Government Primary School Thangar in Pauri Garhwal on Saturday.

Addressing the event, the Uttar Pradesh CM Adityanath emphasised the importance of technology in improving educational facilities and stressed that meaningful change can only happen when society takes the lead in implementing the government's vision.
Reflecting on his own school days, CM Adityanath highlighted the role of discipline and cultural programs in shaping education despite limited resources in the past.
"Today we have technology. With better use of technology, we can implement better (educational) facilities. This can only happen when the government stays behind and society comes forward, then there will be results" the Uttar Pradesh CM said.
"The guidance and vision of the government should be there, but the society should play the role of implementing that vision. Earlier we used to not have resources to provide such facilities. The time when we used to study, there were no such provision of resources but the way our teachers provided us education with discipline. We had the Bal Sabha, cultural events and several other programs," he said..
