LUCKNOW: Hundreds of iconic shrines and myriad of tales from religious scripts and epics not just mention Uttar Pradesh as the birth place of Krishna and Rama but also the site where Lord Shiva, Lord Buddha visited extensively.

Did no previous chief minister of UP before 2017 ever worked to develop these places for the faithful? The 2022 election template for BJP is clear just like PM Modi had set it up when he raised Akhilesh Yadav’s  splurge on Graveyards and electricity distribution more on Eid than Diwali. Here’s what Amit Shah said in a dig at Akhilesh on Friday. READ & WATCH: From Mughal Rule To 2017, UP Wasn’t Told It’s Land Of Baba Vishwanath, Ram & Krishna: Shah Tells Parivar Meet On 2022 Polls

From the Mughal period till 2017, the people of the state did not even know that UP was the land of Rama, Krishna, Shiva and Buddha..It is the BJP government which made the people realise about it

A day after Shah’s visit with his big team involving Anurag Thakur, Dharmendra Pradhan, Shobha Karandlaje, Mahendra Pandey to intensify the membership drive, the Samajwadi Party inducted six rebel MLAs from the Bahujan Samaj Party and one from the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party.

Despite Priyanka Gandhi’s visits that have become frequent to UP, Akhilesh has already said no to both BSP and Congress , especially after fiasco in 2017 and 2019 but he is poaching their rebel leaders.

Six BSP MLAs Mujtaba Siddiqui, Hakim Lal Bind, Sushma Patel, Aslam Chaudhary, Hargovind Bhargava and Aslam Raini and Rakesh Rathore, BJP MLA from Sitapur constituency, switched to the Samajwadi Party on Saturday.

But will the Opposition stay like this?
