CM Yogi is surrounded by his colleagues and close people.
After the BJP’s crushing defeat in Uttar Pradesh in the Lok Sabha elections, the political tussle between the organization and the government shows no signs of abating. Let alone the opposition, the Yogi government is targeting its own leaders. From BJP leaders and MLAs to allied parties have also started raising questions. Two BJP MLAs from CM Yogi’s Gorakhpur region have appealed for security, saying their lives are in danger, while leaders of allied parties are lambasting the Yogi government over the OBC and reservation issues. Thus the Yogi government is surrounded by its own people.
In the 2024 elections, BJP has reduced from 62 Lok Sabha seats to 33 seats in Uttar Pradesh. In this way, BJP has received the biggest blow in the Lok Sabha elections from Uttar Pradesh. Due to which there is continuous churning from Lucknow to Delhi, but no action is being taken.
BJP MLAs pleaded for their lives
BJP MLA Fateh Bahadur Singh demanded security from the government citing a threat to his life and leveled serious allegations against the police administration. Slamming the Yogi government’s Gorakhpur police-administration, he accused the Gorakhpur police of colluding with a person who had collected a donation of Rs 1 crore for his murder. He has demanded that the investigation of the case be handed over to the CBI. At the same time, another BJP MLA Shravan Nishad has applied for his life.
MLA Shravan Nishad is the son of Nishad Party president Sanjay Nishad and a cabinet minister in the Yogi government. Serious allegations have been made against the UP Police and the administration. He said that despite the threat to my life, the police administration has removed his security. By removing their security, the administration is conspiring. Fateh Bahadur Singh and Shravan Nishad, both MLAs hail from Gorakhpur district, the workplace of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. In such a situation, the opposition has been given an opportunity to surround the Yogi government by raising questions on the UP administration.
The colleague opened the front on the issue of reservation
The Yogi government and BJP’s allies have been facing each other since the Lok Sabha elections. Apna Dal (S) chief and Union Minister of State for Health and Family Welfare Anupriya Patel wrote to Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on June 27. In which he accused the state government of not following reservation in recruitment. He linked this to the NDA’s performance in the elections.
In a letter written to Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, Anupriya Patel demanded a ban on the system of declaring reserved posts unreserved. He accused OBC and SC-ST categories of not recruiting on the basis of interview. After this, Anupriya Patel said that the Modi government has been successful in solving the problems of the OBCs, but the Yogi government has not been able to solve the problems of the OBCs.
Not only Anupriya Patel, Nishad Party leader and UP government minister Sanjay Nishad also targeted the Yogi government. He said that some officers have a bicycle, an elephant and a paw inside and a lotus on top. They bite when they get the chance. Also questioning CM Yogi’s bulldozer policy, Sanjay Nishad said that at this time if you use bulldozers and demolish people’s houses, will they vote? Apart from this, he was seen besieging the Yogi government on the issue of OBC reservation.
Echoing Keshav Prasad Maurya, Subhaspi chief Om Prakash Rajbhar said that any organization is made up of workers. Certainly, government is formed by organization. Therefore, when there is no organization, the government also will not stand. He said that what Deputy CM Keshav Prasad Maurya said that the organization is bigger than the government is absolutely true, he supports it.
Jayant opposed the name plate decision
The Yogi government had issued an order to write the names of shopkeepers on the dhabas, shops and food stalls along the Kanwar Yatra route, which has been questioned not only by the opposition but also by BJP’s ally RLD. RLD chief Jayant Chaudhary said that Kanwar pilgrims do not take service at any shop on the basis of caste and religion. This issue should not be linked to religion, not decided after much consideration. Now the decision has been taken, the government depends on it. Sometimes this happens in government. There is still time for the government to withdraw its decision.
Jayant Chaudhary said, where will you keep the name, can you now start writing on the kurta too, whose hand you have to shake and who you have to hug. In this way, Jayant Chaudhary targeted the Yogi government and asked to withdraw this decision.
Keshav Prasad Maurya questioned Yogi Sarkar
Deputy CM Keshav Prasad Maurya wrote to Devesh Chaturvedi, Additional Principal Secretary, Appointments and Personnel, on July 15 regarding appointments made through contract and outsourcing in government departments. He said that during the briefing of Legislative Council questions, the information of total officers and employees working on outsourcing and contract was sought from personnel department officials. Keshav asked to what extent reservation rules were followed in contractual recruitment.
He also mentioned the issue of appointment of 6800 reserved category candidates selected after reservation discrepancy in the recruitment of 69000 assistant teachers. CM Yogi Adityanath is responsible for the appointment and personnel department from which Keshav Prasad Maurya has sought information on the observance of reservation in recruitment.
