Up Election 2022

Varanasi, which falls under PM Modi’s Lok Sabha constituency, goes to the polls in the 7th and last phase of UP assembly elections on March 7.

“When these ‘Pariwarwadis’ were in power, they used to put obstacles in whatever work we used to bring for the development of UP. These Pariwarwadis didn’t let the poor, marginalised section develop,” PM Modi said.

WB CM Mamata Banerjee said that the BJP workers have nothing except hooliganism in their brains. 

Adityanath is running for the Gorakhpur Urban Assembly seat. Following the voting, the Chief Minister urged the voters to vote on development and security issues.

"The Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections have reached a critical juncture. You have witnessed growth developments in the last five years, from the opening of AIIMS to the Kushinagar International Airport. Each of your votes would propel Uttar Pradesh to the top of India's economic rankings," Yogi Adityanath said.

 While the incumbent BJP seeks to maintain power in the state, opposition parties such as the Akhilesh Yadav-led Samajwadi Party hope to dethrone the Yogi Adityanath administration.

The Trinamool Congress supremo is in Varanasi to take part in Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav’s rally for the last phase of the UP election on March 3.

Meanwhile, attacking the Opposition during a rally in Ballia district of UP, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said, “They(opposition) gave the slogan of ‘Garibi Hatao’ during the 70s, but instead of removing poverty they started removing the poor.”

The fifth phase of the crucial Uttar Pradesh Assembly Elections 2022, dubbed the semi-final of the 2024 Lok Sabha Elections, is taking place on Sunday across 61 seats spread across twelve districts.
 

Aimed primarily at the Bahujan Samaj Party, Adityanath claimed that the BSP elephant's stomach is so large that it has consumed the entire state's ration.
 

A BJP MLA from Uttar Pradesh climbed up on a chair during an election rally on Wednesday, clutched his ears, and performed a series of sit-ups on stage, apologising to his constituents for any faults done during the BJP's five-year rule.

During a campaign stop in Amethi for the present state Assembly election, the UP CM stated that his government will not allow 'Gaumata' to be murdered and will also safeguard farmers' crops from stray animals.

Yogi Adityanath government in Uttar Pradesh has made a concerted effort to make people dependent on its schemes, Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra told Asianet Newsable in an exclusive interview. 

Confident of forming the government, Jagat Prakash Nadda also stated that the party would win a landslide majority in the Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections.

Polling is underway in 59 Assembly seats spread across the districts of Pilibhit, Lakhimpur Kheri, Sitapur, Hardoi, Unnao, Lucknow, Rae Bareli, Banda, and Fatehpur.
