Kasganj (Uttar Pradesh) [India], January 30 (ANI): Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Sunday said that the state of Uttar Pradesh has seen rapid development in the tenure of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government, which changed the VIP culture in the state to 'Every Person is Important' (EPI) culture.
"Uttar Pradesh has seen rapid development in last five years. Our government has changed the VIP culture into EPI- 'Every Person is Important' culture," said Singh while addressing the audience during a 'Prabhavi Matdaata Samvad' (effective voter dialogue) programme in Kasganj.
The minister said that the upcoming election is not only about forming a new government but also scripting the destiny of the state. He also lauded the work done by the Centre and the state government, both currently in hands of the BJP.
