Visiting the project sites, Uttar Pradesh Chief Secretary Javed Usmani also instructed the Agra Development Authority to work on a Mughal Museum project.

He also visited the site for the upcoming Theme Park in village Rehan Kalan. Interacting with district officials at the Circuit House, Usmani said tourism in Agra region had tremendous potential and could speed up economic development.

He stressed that the tourists' stay in Agra should now extend to a couple of days, but noted that for this, infrastructural facilities had to be broad-based and upgraded.

He said the Taj Ganj project will undoubtedly change the profile of the whole area and would be found attractive by tourists. ‘But the general ambience have to improve, the standards of hygiene and cleanliness, sewer lines and roads have to be modernised,’ he added.
