Will establish good governance in UP: Yogi Adityanath

Five times MP of BJP from Gorakhpur constituency in UP, Yogi Adityanath has been unanimously chosen as the leader of the state legislature at a parliamentary meet of the party' state unit.

Union Minister Venkaiah Naidu who presided over the meet named Yogi as the new CM of UP.

On being chosen for the Chief Ministerial post, Adityanath said: "I want to thank BJP for trusting me and also grateful to the Governor for inviting us to form the government."

Adityanath, a fire brand of Hindutva (Hinduism), was often seen to be landing up in controversies for his attacks on Muslim community.

He also attacked Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan once and said: "I think there is no difference between the language of Shah Rukh Khan and Hafiz Saeed (terrorist)."

Highlighting the idea of development, Adityanath said: "We will take UP forward with Prime Minister's 'Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas (Development for all)."

Apart from good governance, the would-be CM of UP ensured that the BJP led government will improve the law and order situation.

BJP during the election campaign in 2017 criticised the former Samajwadi Party led government for poor law and order in Uttar Pradesh.

The swearing-in ceremony would take place on Sunday at 5 PM.
