Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand are scheduled to ghost assembly elections next year i.e. in 2022. All major political parties have already started preparing for it. BJP, which is the ruling party in both the states is claiming to repeat their 2017 victory. However, their path this year is expected to be filled with hurdles.

The BJP had contested the 2017 election in UP without deciding who would be the Chief Minister upon their victory. After the election results came in, the party then appointed monk and five-time MP from Gorakhpur, Yogi Adityanath as the chief minister of Uttar Pradesh. Yogi is said to be the face of BJP's Hindutva ideology. Yogi is said to be BJP's face for the upcoming UP assembly elections too.
