Yogi Adityanath To Discuss New Cabinet Formation In Delhi Today With PM Modi

Lucknow: Days after BJP’s victorious win in the Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections for the consecutive second term, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is set to visit Delhi today to discuss the new cabinet with Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

The swearing-in ceremony of CM Yogi is also to be discussed in the meeting. National President JP Nadda, Amit Shah and BL Santosh in Delhi will be present at the meeting.

As per NDTV reports, the BJP is also considering several new faces in the Cabinet along with the new Deputy Chief Minister. State President Ratan Dev Singh, Minister Sunil Bansal, state in-charge Radha Mohan Singh will also accompany Adityanath to Delhi on Sunday.

Many Bharatiya Janata Party leaders have won by a huge margin of votes. In this, the candidate from the Noida Assembly seat and Union Defense Minister Rajnath Singh’s son Pankaj Singh has won by a margin of 1,81,513 votes.

Preparations to implement the promises made in its ‘Sankalp Patra’ – party’s manifesto for the state – in the first cabinet meeting after the new government is formed have begun. Over the issue of abandoned animals and stray cattle, the BJP government is considering options of setting up new cow protection centers and cow safari.

A decision is likely to be taken to pay the sugarcane farmers in 14 days and, if time exceeds, then the payment would be made with interest. A decision regarding the recruitment for vacant posts in many departments is also on the anvil.

Adityanath on Friday tendered his resignation to Governor Anandiben Patel at the Raj Bhavan in Lucknow.

Following the massive victory in the Uttar Pradesh Assembly election, Adityanath on Friday held a meeting with his ministerial colleagues at the party office in Lucknow. Adityanath, a monk-turned-politician, won his first-ever Assembly election by a margin of 1,03,390 from Gorakhpur Urban constituency, defeating the Samajwadi Party candidate Subhawati Upendra Dutt Shukla, who secured 62,109 votes in the recently-concluded UP Assembly elections. Adityanath will be the first Chief Minister in the last 37 years to return to power after completing a full term in the state.
