Calling Ujjain "the soul of India", a city that embodies the nation's religious, cultural, and spiritual energy, rooted in the divine grace of Lord Mahakal, Chief Minister Mohan Yadav said it was Mahakal's blessings that led such a small city to have the global recognition of "the best religious and spiritual destination".

Yadav was addressing the inauguration of the second Global Spiritual Tourism Conclave 'RoohMantic' at a private hotel on Wednesday.

He said that Ujjain's stature is the result of a long journey, significantly accelerated after PM Narendra Modi inaugurated the Shri Mahakal Lok corridor, transforming the city's identity and attraction. Lighting the ceremonial lamp alongside Union Minister for Tourism and Culture Gajendra Singh Shekhawat, the CM spoke of Ujjain's timeless glory. "This is the city of time itself...Ujjain has been a seat of learning since the time of Lord Krishna, at the Sandipani Ashram. For self-reflection, there is no better place in the world," he said.
