  "account": "Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath addressed a public meeting in Prayagraj, alleging that the Samajwadi Party patronized criminals and goons during its rule, while the Bharatiya Janata Party brought development and change. Speaking about the Bhoomi Pujan ceremony for 602 houses under the Padmalok Awas Yojana, Adityanath distributed keys to beneficiaries of 556 houses constructed under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (Urban) project. He announced that Kasari-Masari would be renamed Shri Krishnapuri, and the entire area would be developed. Adityanath warned that no one would tolerate mafia activities in Prayagraj, and any encroachment on reclaimed land would result in seizure of wealth. The CM highlighted the historical significance of Prayagraj and announced the construction of a high-rise building on land reclaimed from the mafia, providing homes to 86 poor families. The project will be expanded in Kasari-Masari, with the first phase providing houses for 602 families and the second phase for 598 families, benefiting approximately 1,200 families and creating a population of 6,000 to 6,500. New amenities such as a market, park, sports, gym, and other facilities will be included in the township.",
