The swearing-in program has been done for the second term of the Yogi government. All the ministers including CM, Deputy CM have taken oath. According to this oath, Dinesh Sharma, who was Deputy CM in the first term, has failed to save his chair. At the same time, even after the defeat, Keshav Prasad has become the Deputy CM of Maurya.
This time 52 ministers took oath along with Yogi Adityanath. It has Keshav Prasad Maurya and Brajesh Pathak as Deputy CMs. Now the question is arising that even after losing, how did Keshav Prasad Maurya save his chair and where was Dinesh Sharma’s chair stuck? In fact, earlier it was being said that Dinesh Sharma’s chair will remain and Keshav Prasad Maurya’s chair will go, but in the oath that has been taken, Keshav Prasad Maurya is overshadowed by Dinesh Sharma.
According to Republic Bharat, Dinesh Sharma said on this matter- “In BJP, no decision is taken on the basis of caste, religion and region. BJP is a collective team in which ‘we’ are not ‘I’ but ‘we’. Everyone tries and works together. Only one thing is in mind- how can we increase our efforts for the welfare of the people of Uttar Pradesh. This collective approach has propelled the people of the BJP for an overwhelming majority. The charismatic leadership and double engine government of Yogi ji and Modi ji created enthusiasm among the people”.
It is being said that Dinesh Sharma’s failure to enter the electoral fray has gone against him. Keshav Maurya has been a big leader of the state level of BJP, has been the state president, has also been an OBC identity, and a large mass base is also with him. Apart from this, he has played a big role in the huge victory of 2017. In the last term, he has been working in the capacity of number two. When Swami Prasad Maurya left the BJP with his colleagues, Keshav Prasad Maurya remained as the big face of OBC. Also, for 2024 also, the face of Keshav Prasad Maurya can prove beneficial for BJP.
While Dinesh Sharma being a Brahmin was in his support, but Brajesh Pathak, who won the election, looked ahead of Dinesh Sharma for Deputy CM with Brahmin quota and he won it. At the same time, his penetration in the Brahmin community is also not visible on a large circle.
It is said that even after being the Deputy CM, Dinesh Sharma’s penetration was not visible in the Brahmins. On the other hand, Brajesh Pathak, on the other hand, has been considered a sharp leader. He has also been a minister in Yogi’s first term. It is believed that the hopes that Dinesh Sharma could not fulfill, those hopes can be fulfilled due to Brajesh Pathak’s sharpness and penetration among Brahmin society. Perhaps this is the reason why Brajesh Pathak got a place in the Yogi cabinet and Dinesh Pathak got out of the Yogi cabinet.
