Yogi Adityanath Declares: Mustafabad Will Now Be Known as ‘Kabir Dham’: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath visited the Vishwa Kalyan Ashram in Mustafabad, Lakhimpur Kheri, on Monday to attend the Smriti Prakatyotsav Mela-2025.

He said his government is working to restore these places’ original identity and pride. Quoting Saint Kabirdas, he said the saint’s words continue to guide society even today. Yogi further cautioned people to stay vigilant against forces that aim to divide the nation, asserting that patriotism and unity are the true solutions to every problem.
The Chief Minister also highlighted the development taking place in border districts like Lakhimpur Kheri, mentioning ongoing work on village roads, medical colleges, airport expansion, and eco-tourism. Praising Saint Asangdev Ji Maharaj for his work in religion, drug de-addiction, and national awareness, CM Yogi stressed the importance of cow protection and natural farming. He said the government provides ₹1,500 per month for every cow and urged public representatives to ensure proper care of cow shelters.
