Uttar Pradesh is gearing up for its most magnificent state day yet, as CM Yogi Adityanath envisions a three-day extravaganza from January 24-26, 2026, fueled by public zeal from all 75 districts. This janotsav will spotlight cultural diversity, exquisite crafts, regional cuisines, and the state’s transformative growth, all on one grand platform.
Reviewing preparations on Wednesday, Yogi Adityanath described it as more than protocol—a vivid display of UP’s identity and potential with citizen backing. Amit Shah’s role as chief guest adds prestige, calling for impeccable execution in decorum and efficiency.
The centerpiece at Rashtraprerna Sthal, Lucknow, will beam live across districts for collective revelry. Anchored by ‘Developed India-Developed UP,’ exhibits will parade achievements in innovation, basics, business, agriculture, women upliftment, and self-sufficiency.
‘Ek Janpad-Ek Vyanjan’ steals the show, assembling signature dishes from each district to celebrate culinary pluralism. Cultural festivities from 2025-26 will merge in, promoting folk to fusion arts with ‘Our Culture-Our Identity’ ethos, complete with artist amenities.
January 24’s main event honors district luminaries for exemplary contributions, fostering unity. Yogi’s directive: Forge a legacy event blending tradition, savor, skill, and progress, making it profoundly inspiring and eternally memorable.
