BJP Reposes Faith in Yogi Adityanath Amid Unrest Buzz, to Discuss 2024 Review & 2027 Polls With CM – News18

The BJP leadership will be reposing its faith in Yogi Adityanath and will discuss the review done by the Uttar Pradesh chief minister of the 2024 election result in the state as well as firm up the strategy for the 2027 assembly polls.

Adityanath arrived in Delhi on Friday and held a meeting with senior BJP leader BL Santhosh before attending the NITI Aayog meeting and a chief ministers’ conclave of the BJP on Saturday and Sunday. “Yogi is a popular CM and the party has full faith in him. There is no basis of any rumours doing the rounds,” a top BJP leader told News18.

Before coming to Delhi, the chief minister completed a 20-day review with UP public representatives post the 2024 Lok Sabha election results in which the BJP received a drubbing. He met BJP MPs, MLAs and MLCs from all 18 divisions of Uttar Pradesh for extensive review meetings focusing on the results. Each representative presented the issues and expectations of their constituencies to the chief minister openly during the meetings.

Adityanath has advised them to start preparing for the upcoming assembly elections from now. He suggested analysing the voting patterns from the recent polls in their areas and using that analysis to plan their strategies, sources said. The division-wise review meetings began on July 7 with the Devipatan and Ayodhya divisions and were completed with Lucknow division on Friday.

The chief minister has advised leaders to highlight development activities and counter Opposition’s rumours, instructing officials to develop a new strategy for development of each region. “He provided the mantra of victory for the upcoming 2027 assembly elections. He emphasised the need to focus on communication, active engagement, and social media,” a source said.

Adityanath instructed public representatives to ensure that development activities in their areas are communicated to the public and to maintain constant contact with beneficiaries of various schemes. He also advised them to vocally oppose the spread of rumours and attempts to disrupt social harmony by the Opposition on social media. He urged them to expose Opposition’s lies and share the truth with the public with the help of social media, sources said.

The chief minister has directed all public representatives to engage with youth and women’s organisations in their areas. He emphasised that they should inform youth about the impartial provision of government jobs without any bribes or discrimination based on caste, religion, or creed. Public representatives should connect with those who have secured jobs without bias or bribery and maintain ongoing communication with local athletes.

He also directed them to file written complaints if any official shows reluctance in implementing government welfare schemes, assuring that appropriate action will be taken.

Both the Deputy chief ministers — Keshav Prasad Maurya and Brijesh Pathak — were missing from these review meetings chaired by the CM. Maurya has also skipped several cabinet meetings chaired by Adityanath recently. The BJP leadership is also expected to discuss this during the CM’s visit.
