The list includes Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav and BSP chief Mayawati. The move comes as political parties intensify their preparations for the crucial state polls. Uttar Pradesh has stepped up security arrangements for several political leaders ahead of the 2027 Assembly elections, with 52 leaders being provided bulletproof jackets costing around Rs 10 lakh each, ANI reported, citing sources.
The list includes leaders from different political backgrounds, including the BJP, Samajwadi Party and BSP. BJP General Secretary Vinod Tawde has been appointed as the party’s in-charge for Uttar Pradesh. Jagdish Ishwarbhai Patel has been named co-in-charge. The appointments underline the BJP’s focus on building its election strategy well ahead of polling in the country’s most populous state. Party leaders from other backward classes and minority communities are being given greater representation in organisational appointments as part of the wider strategy. The surveys are focused on the party’s organisational strength, possible candidates and local issues that could influence voters.
The BJP has already started preparing for the 2027 Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections, with the party making key organisational appointments for the state. The BJP has also started surveys across Assembly constituencies to assess its position ahead of the 2027 polls.
