Uttar Pradesh Minister Om Prakash Rajbar Talks About Nameplate Law and Schemes
On Monday, Uttar Pradesh cabinet minister Om Prakash Rajbar clarified that the decision to place nameplates on eateries along the Kanwar Yatra route was introduced by the UPA government in 2006. He emphasized that the BJP and NDA government have not created any new laws but are implementing existing ones.
Rajbar highlighted the benefits of various schemes now being implemented in the state. He mentioned that under the Ayushman card, Rs 5 lakh is being provided to people for medicines. He also praised the Swachh Bharat mission for improving conditions significantly and noted the development of airports.
Earlier, BJP MP Arun Govil supported the Uttar Pradesh government's directive for food shops on the Kanwar route to display the owners' names. He stated, "I don't find anything wrong in this order. Displaying names on the shops is not wrong. The person who is eating has the right to know from where they are eating."
On July 20, the Uttar Pradesh government issued directives for food shops on the Kanwar route to display the owners' names, which was criticized by opposition parties citing religious discrimination.
