Following the Bhartiya Janata Party’s (BJP) unsatisfactory performance in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections in Uttar Pradesh, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has called for an urgent meeting with all ministers. The meeting, aimed at reviewing departmental work and addressing public feedback, is scheduled for today at Lok Bhawan.
