Three members of the Legislative Council (MLCs) in Uttar Pradesh — Bukkal Nawab and Yashwant Singh from the Samajwadi Party (SP) and Thakur Jaiveer Singh from the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) — resigned on Saturday, making way for three ministers of the Yogi Adityanath Cabinet. Currently, five members of the State Cabinet, including Adityanath himself, are not members of either House. The development came just an hour before BJP president Amit Shah arrived in the state capital for a three-day visit.
BSP chief Mayawati said that after Bihar and Gujarat, the political development in UP made it clear that the Narendra Modi government had created a threat for democracy. She said the BJP government was misusing agencies like the CBI, Income Tax and Enforcement Directorate to target the Opposition. Meanwhile, Leglislative Council Chairman Ramesh Yadav accepted the MLCs’ resignations and notified that the seats had fallen vacant. While the SP MLCs’ terms were ending on July 7, 2022, the BSP MLC’s term was ending in May 2018.
Besides Adityanath, Deputy Chief Ministers Keshav Prasad Maurya and Dinesh Sharma, and Ministers Swatantra Deo Singh and Mohsin Raja are not members of either House in the state. They will have to become members of the Assembly or Council by next month. According to sources, Adityanath and Maurya are likely to contest Assembly elections.
