BJP’s Plan for the new term
Amit Shah, on Thursday, stated that the BJP will devote the next five years to making Uttar Pradesh the most prosperous state and No.1 economy in the country. He said, “Our job must be to build on this grand win. The next five years are to restore UP’s glory and to make it the country’s number one economy.,”

This time around, Baby Rani Maurya is seen as a strong contender for the position.
