Uttar Pradesh Elections 2017

"In Uttar Pradesh, PM Modi has been blessed for the fourth time consecutively -- 2014 Lok Sabha, 2017 Vidha Sabha, 2019 Lok Sabha and now, in the 2022 Vidhan Sabha elections," BJP president JP Nadda said.

Yogi Adityanath was an unexpected pick for the chief minister's post after the BJP scored a landslide win in the 2017 UP Assembly polls.

Most opinion polls forecast that the BJP is going to win by a clear and convincing margin in Uttar Pradesh, although, on average, the BJP is forecast to win about 100 seats fewer than in the 2017 landslide.

Sixty-one constituencies spread across 12 districts of Uttar Pradesh are voting in the fifth phase of elections in the state today. Polling began at 7 am and will continue till 6 pm.

Voting was held in 59 constituencies of Uttar Pradesh, including state capital Lucknow and Lakhimpur Kheri, today in the fourth phase of assembly polls. Five seats under Raebareli, the bastion of Sonia Gandhi, also voted.

The first of the seven-phase polling in Uttar Pradesh -- said to be the semi-final before the general election of 2024 -- ended peacefully on Thursday. 60.17% people voted for the 58 seats in western UP, a shade lower than the 63.5% in 2017.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said the "river of development" had stopped in Uttar Pradesh before 2017 due to the dynastic approach of "fake samajwadis'.

Between 1947 and 2017, Uttar Pradesh ranked sixth or seventh in the country on several indices, but the BJP government helped the economy reach the second spot, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said today

BJP ally Apna Dal today said they will contest far more seats in Uttar Pradesh in the coming elections than the 11 they contested in 2017 and the matter will be finalised soon.

The alleged "exodus" of Hindus from Uttar Pradesh's Kairana before 2017 - a claim widely debunked as a communal bogey - took centre-stage as Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Saturday launched a door-to-door election campaign in the state's west.

The SP's Akhilesh Yadav, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister before Yogi Adityanath took over in 2017, said the BJP has seen the writing on the wall. A realisation that his party will lose power in 2022 has prompted a change in the incumbent's language.

A challenge to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's election as MP last year from the Varanasi constituency in Uttar Pradesh was rejected by the Supreme Court today.

The BJP's hold on the map of India has shrunk. In 2017, after the party's spectacular victory in Uttar Pradesh and Nitish Kumar's return to the NDA, the political map of the country was swathed in saffron.
