Along with Kedarnath temple, another key project initiated by Prime Minister Modi has been the Char Dham Pariyojana to link the four holiest Hindu shrines of Uttarakhand – Kedarnath, Badrinath, Yamnotri and Gangotri - by an all-weather road for the benefit of the lakhs of pilgrims who come every year. The most ambitious temple projects on Modi’s table since 2019 have been the Ram temple in Ayodhya in Uttar Pradesh and the Kashi Vishwanath Dham project in his parliamentary constituency Varanasi. While the Supreme Court paved the way for the temple in 2019 and PM Modi himself did its bhoom-pujan last year along with kick-starting a rejuvenation project for entire Ayodhya town, the Prime Minister has closely monitored the Kashi Vishwanath Dham project too.
