Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi unveiled a plaque to mark the laying of foundation stone of Atal Bihari Vajpayee Medical University in Lucknow today. Governor of Uttar Pradesh Smt Anandiben Patel, Chief Minister Shri Yogi Adityanath, Deputy Chief Ministers, and other dignitaries were also present on the occasion.

Speaking on the occasion he said that, it is also a coincidence that on the day of Good Governance Day, the statue of Atal Ji has been unveiled in the building from which the UP government runs. This magnificent statue of him will inspire people working in Lok Bhavan for good governance and public service, he added.

The Prime Minister said that it is a privilege for him to lay the foundation stone of the institute related to health education dedicated to Atal Ji since Lucknow has been the parliamentary seat of Atal Ji for years. The Prime Minister reminded that Atal Ji used to say that life cannot be seen in pieces, it has to be seen in totality. The same is true for the government, the same is true for good governance. Good governance is also not possible until we think of the problems in totality, he added.
