Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India], March 24 : After the BJP government completed its eight years in Uttar Pradesh, Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya on Monday exuded confidence that the party will repeat the same performance in the 2027 Assembly elections as it did in 2017.
Speaking to ANI, Maurya also claimed that by 2047, the Samajwadi Party, Congress, and Bahujan Samaj Party would have no future in the state.
"BJP came to power in the state in 2017, and in 2025, we completed 8 years (of governance). The transformation and joy that has come into the lives of 25 crore people of the state, the development that has taken place, and the opportunity to head towards the welfare of the poor are unmatched. I am very confident that we will repeat 2017 in 2027 and form a government for the third consecutive time. By 2047, there would be no future of SP, Congress or BSP in the future of UP," he said.
Earlier today, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath lauded the performance of his government on its eighth anniversary, and said that eight years of "service, safety, and good governance" have been completed under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi.
During a special program organised to mark the completion of eight years of the BJP government, CM Yogi Adityanath expressed gratitude to the people of the state.
Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya, Minister Brajesh Pathak, Minister Chaudhary Bhupendra Singh Chaudhary, along with several other ministers and dignitaries, attended the program.
"Under the leadership of PM Modi, 8 years of service, safety, and good governance have been completed... the double-engine government of UP has completed 8 years today...I thank 25 crore people of Uttar Pradesh for their support," CM Yogi said at the press conference.
Drawing comparisons from the previous governments, the Chief Minister said there was an "identity crisis" in the state, and its infrastructure, economy, law and order, everything was in a 'dire state'.
He added that people can see how vast changes can be brought just by a change in the government.
"Most of us know what the condition and identity of UP was 8 years ago. The condition of UP's infrastructure and economy 8 years ago was not hidden...There was an identity crisis in front of UP; farmers were committing suicide, youth were struggling, daughters and traders were unsafe and the people tolerated the poor economy because of riots and the collapsed law and order situation," the UP CM further said.
