BJP Uttar Pradesh Poll debacle; CM Yogi calls meeting of Ministers today

Furthermore, CM Yogi will review the recruitment process for the vacant posts in another meeting scheduled for 6 pm.

Lucknow: Following the unsatisfactory performance of the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections in Uttar Pradesh, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath called a meeting of all ministers here on Saturday. The meeting will be aimed at discussing the fiasco that led BJP to secure half the number of seats it has secured in the 2019 elections.


The meeting is scheduled to be held at Lok Bhawan at 11 am. The CM instructed all ministers to remain present in the meeting. The primary agenda of the meeting includes a thorough review of the departmental work undertaken by the ministers. Apart from this, a detailed discussion will be there on the issues pertaining to poll result.


Furthermore, CM Yogi will review the recruitment process for the vacant posts in another meeting scheduled for 6 pm.


He will meet with officers from various commissions and recruitment boards. This includes the UPPCL, UPSC Subordinate City Selection Commission, and the Police Recruitment and Promotion Board.


The remarkable performance by the INDIA bloc, led by Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, has dealt a significant blow to the BJP-led NDA’s target of securing ‘400 seats’ in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.


In contrast to the 2014 and 2019 general elections, when the BJP secured 62 and 71 seats respectively, this time the BJP secured just 33 seats. Whereas SP won 37 seats, and Congress secured six seats.
