Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday inaugurated a part of <a href="http://www.wionews.com/india-news/prime-minister-narendra-modi-launches-delhi-metros-magenta-line-27654">Delhi Metro&#39;s Magenta Line</a> which will connect Botanical Garden in Noida to Kalkaji in south Delhi. And accompanying him was Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.

Adityanath&#39;s presence at the metro inauguration function was being highlighted by the media due to &#39;Noida jinx&#39;, a superstition that any chief minister who visits Noida, ends up losing his position.

Today, as he addressed a rally in Noida after inaugurating the Magenta Line, PM Modi congratulated Yogi Adityanath for breaking the &#39;Noida jinx&#39;.

&quot;I want to congratulate Yogi Adityanath, he is focussing on the all-round development of Uttar Pradesh. His (saffron) clothes might create confusion that he is old school, but just by being here, Yogiji has proved that there is no place for such myths in a developed society,&quot; PM Modi said. &quot;This shows his progressive thinking.&quot;

Politicians who believe that by going somewhere they will lose their CM&#39;s chair, such people don&#39;t deserve to lead a state, the PM added.

The &#39;Noida jinx&#39; took root in June 1988, when then chief minister Vir Bahadur Singh was asked to relinquish office by the Centre. Interestingly, the decision was made within days of his return from Noida.

Likewise, Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) supremo Mayawati also lost her CM&#39;s chair after visiting Noida, in 1997.

Then in 1989, ND Tiwari had to vacate the office and 10 years later in 1999, Kalyan Singh suffered due to the jinx.

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath will visit Noida on Saturday to conduct inspection of the arrangements ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi&#39;s visit here on December 25 for the inauguration of Delhi Metro&#39;s Magenta line at Botanical Garden.

He is also likely to break the so-called &#39;Noida jinx&#39;, by attending the function on December 25. There is a superstition that any chief minister visiting Noida has to demit the office.

Authorities in Noida are busy making security and other arrangements ahead of PM Modi&#39;s visit. District Magistrate Brajesh Narain Singh held a meeting with district and police officers on Thursday.

&quot;A helipad has been made at Botanical Garden. After the inauguration of the Magenta line of the Metro rail, the Prime Minister will address a public rally at Amity University ground. He is scheduled to reach Noida at 1pm and leave at 2.20pm,&quot; Noida City Magistrate Mahendra Kumar Singh said.

The 12.64-km-long metro line which will be inaugurated by the PM on Saturday is a part of the upcoming Botanical Garden (Noida)-Janakpuri West (Delhi) corridor, has nine stations, and will connect Kalkaji in south Delhi to Noida.

After the new section of the Delhi Metro is opened, commuters will be able to travel directly to the Kalkaji Mandir Metro Station from Botanical Garden in 19 minutes. The travel time Blue and Violet lines of the metro takes 52 minutes with interchange point at the Mandi House station.
