SBSP chief and SP ally Om Prakash Rajbhar has a lead over his rivals with 34,667 votes, and a voteshare of over 44 per cent. Kalicharan Rajbhar has got 22,838 votes.
In run-up to 2017 polls, Yogi had not even been declared a star campaigner by BJP in first 2 phases of election. But then his name was announced for post of CM.
Till noon, the former CM has polled over 40,000 votes currently in SP bastion of Karhal in Mainpuri district. BJP’s S.P. Singh Baghel trails far behind, getting over 14,000 votes till now.
PM Modi addressed 24 in-person rallies and 5 virtual ones, as early part of campaign was restricted due to Covid third wave. He had addressed 24 in the 2017 UP polls.
Was the impression of a wave in favour of Akhilesh Yadav and his Samajwadi Party illusory? Not quite but exit polls for UP 2022 show we missed the real question.
BJP on its own has never dislodged any regional party in assembly polls, except the Samajwadi Party in 2017. The converse is also true but without any exception.
India has been pleading for long to bring reforms in institutions like the United Nations, IMF, and World Bank, which it believes are West-dominated and don’t reflect current global realities.
Mini deal will likely see no cut in 10% baseline tariff on Indian exports announced by Trump on 2 April, it is learnt, but additional 26% tariffs are set to be reduced.
The Chinese are said to have hired ex-fighter pilots & air force operators from NATO countries over the past several years to help them fine-tune their operational & flying capabilities.
Public, loud, upfront, filled with impropriety and high praise sometimes laced with insults. This is what we call Trumplomacy. But the larger objective is the same: American supremacy.
