The government of Yogi Adityanath has revealed plans to expand three Uttar Pradesh cities. These three cities are Prayagraj, Gorakhpur, and Varanasi. A government official stated that the government intends to integrate numerous villages into these cities in order to further their development and expansion.

The decision was made by the government in light of these three cities' expanding populations. Better city planning, equitable resource distribution and allocation, and conscientious resident services are the goals of this expansion.

The cabinet has taken a number of noteworthy actions to further strengthen the state's travel and tourism industry. The tourism department has been given free land by the government, aside from Shakumbri Devi.
