  "account": "Delhi Confidential unveils revelations from the BJP hierarchy and the intriguing absence of Uttar Pradesh's ministers at a critical agriculture summit. Prime Minister Narendra Modi met with the party's newly elected national office-bearers, cautioning them not to rest on their laurels post-election victories. Modi emphasized the importance of staying connected with people on the ground and understanding their needs, urging each of the 65 new office-bearers to strengthen their bond with party members, particularly in states where the BJP holds power.\n\nA glaring omission from the Digital Agriculture Mission and Pulse Mission conference was the absence of any Uttar Pradesh ministers. The gathering, hosted by the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare and led by Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan, saw participation from only four states - Haryana, Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, and Nagaland. This conspicuous absence was particularly notable given that UP typically sends all three of its agriculture ministers to such events. Notably, the three UP ministers who attended last year's National Agriculture Conference - Rabi Abhiyan 2025 were notably absent once again.",
