Speaking at a virtual meeting, which was also attended by Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, Modi described Ayodhya as a city that is etched in the cultural consciousness of every Indian.

”Ayodhya should manifest the finest of our traditions and the best of our developmental transformations,” the prime minister was quoted by a government source as saying at the meeting.

Noting that Ayodhya is both spiritual and sublime, Modi said the human ethos of the city must be matched by futuristic infrastructure, which is beneficial for everyone including tourists and pilgrims, according to the sources.

The coming generations should feel the desire to visit Ayodhya at least once in their lifetime, Modi was quoted as saying.
