Confident of a hat-trick in U.P.: Nabin

Nitin Nabin, the national president of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), expressed confidence that the party would secure a third consecutive win in the Uttar Pradesh Assembly election of 2027. Speaking at a gathering of office-bearers and workers in Saharanpur, Nabin emphasized the dedication of BJP workers and leaders, stating that their primary objective is to serve the public.

During his recent two-day visit to western Uttar Pradesh, Nabin met with workers and senior leaders, noting the evident enthusiasm and energy of the workers as a promising sign for the party's prospects in the upcoming election. Earlier, Nabin held meetings with MPs, MLAs, and key party officials, outlining the roadmap for their future endeavors.

A significant focus of these discussions was strengthening efforts at the booth-level to ensure thorough preparation. On Monday, Nabin addressed a Yuva Samvad program in Meerut, addressing the youth and highlighting the public's belief in development while preserving the cultural heritage. He attributed this confidence to the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, who are perceived as capable of achieving a developed Viksit Bharat and an Uttam Pradesh.

Nabin also praised the welfare measures implemented by the Union and State governments, as well as the efforts to end lawlessness in the state. The election landscape in western Uttar Pradesh became contentious as MPs from opposing parties made conflicting claims about their roles and capabilities. Iqra Hasan of the Samajwadi Party and Imran Masood of the Congress asserted their parties' readiness to challenge the ruling BJP.

Masood emphasized Rahul Gandhi's role as the Opposition's voice, while Hasan argued that Akhilesh Yadav, the leader of the Samajwadi Party, is the key figure capable of defeating the BJP. Meanwhile, Congress MP Rahul Gandhi was considered the Opposition's primary representative across the country. The BJP's national president emphasized the importance of party workers, who he referred to as the "backbone" of the party, in ensuring victory in the upcoming election.
