All these infrastructure projects - ropeway, cricket stadium, road widening - sound great for Varanasi's development. But I hope the quality is maintained and they are completed on time, not just for the visit but for the long-term benefit of the city. 🙏

Security is paramount for our PM's visit, no doubt. But the real test is whether the cleanliness and improved traffic management continue after the VIPs leave. We need permanent solutions, not just a temporary show for an event.

As someone who has visited Varanasi, the focus on Manikarnika Ghat and Dalmandi is much needed. The congestion there is unreal. Hope the road widening brings some relief to locals and pilgrims alike. The international stadium could be a game-changer for sports in the region!

A cricket stadium ready by July? That's "war footing" indeed! Hope the quality doesn't suffer in the rush. Jai Hind to PM Modi's visit. Our Kashi is developing fast under this double-engine government. 🚀

While security and projects are important, I appreciate the specific mention of facilities for the Women's Conference - movement, parking, water. Often these basic needs for women attendees are an afterthought. Good step.
