As expected, the BJP clinched 7 of the 9 assembly seats in Uttar Pradesh on Saturday where by-elections were held on November 20.
The ruling BJP is leading in seven out of nine assembly seats in Uttar Pradesh whereas the Samajwadi Party had retained the Sisamau seat in Kanpur and was leading in Karhal seat in Mainpuri.
National Democratic Alliance (NDA) candidates were leading on three seats while Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) was ahead on one seat as trends for the Bihar bypolls started pouring in on Saturday.
As the BJP gained a lead in Uttar Pradesh by-polls on nine seats, Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya said on Saturday that the Samajwadi party's reality has come before the people and it is going to become "Samaptwadi Party."
Launching a scathing attack on Congress and the Samajwadi Party (SP) on Sunday, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath described the two parties as "incapable of ensuring security, fostering development, and promoting the welfare of the underprivileged".
This altercation followed a midnight incident where police claimed to have recovered Rs 1 lakh in cash from a vehicle belonging to Lavkush in the Tanda area. The police confiscated the money for investigation and registered a case under the Model Code of Conduct.
He said that Congress and SP had stopped the construction of Ram temple in Ayodhya for 70 years.
Says they are anti-Ram, anti-national and anti-poor.
Alliances often shape the contours of electoral battles, and the saga in Uttar Pradesh stands as a testament to this reality.
