Uttar Pradesh Concludes Kakori Centenary With Swadeshi Appeal and Mango Export Initiative

A Lucknow ceremony invoked the 1925 revolutionaries to link national unity with swadeshi-driven economic growth.

Overview

  • Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath urged citizens to “live for Swadeshi and die for the nation” and hoist the tricolour under the Har Ghar Tiranga campaign at the centenary’s conclusion.
  • Yogi paid homage to Kakori martyrs by planting a Peepal tree and participating in Raksha Bandhan rituals to honour revolutionary sacrifice.
  • The state unveiled plans to export Malihabad mangoes globally under the ‘Kakori’ brand to connect local development with the freedom struggle’s legacy.
