100 Days Of Yogi 2.0: CM Adityanath Credits His Govt With Improving UP's Image Of 'Hooliganism & Crime'

Yogi Adityanath Speech: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath recounted the ruling BJP government's achievements as it completed 100 days in its second term.

New Delhi: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Monday released a booklet on the completion of 100 days of his government's second term. Addressing a press conference in Lucknow, CM Adityanath highlighted Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) recent electoral feat in assembly election as well as the bypolls in Azamgarh and Rampur. He also lauded his government's schemes while crediting his dispensation for improving the state's image which was of "hooliganism and crime".

The Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister said: "Two bypolls seats including Azamgarh and Rampur, which had been won by Samajwadi Party (SP) in 2019 were taken by BJP this year. It was the first time in UP that a formed government stayed all 5 years and came into power again with majority. We did what we had promised."

Recently, BJP's Ghanshyam Lodhi won the Lok Sabha bypoll in Rampur while the party candidate Dinesh Lal Yadav 'Nirahua' defeated Samajwadi Party's Dharmendra Yadav, his nearest rival at Azamgarh.

Highlighting the state government's work, Yogi Adityanath mentioned that "UP is the biggest state in the country and can lead the country ahead. 'Sarkar Janta Ke Dwar' was a success as 18 ministers held camps for 72 hours in each commissionerate, held 'Janta Chaupals', assessed development works and went to blocks and villages", news agency ANI reported.

He credited his government with improving the state's image which was of "hooliganism and crime", leading to more foreign investment.
