At Amit Shah's UP Meet, BJP Sets 325-350 Seats Target For 2027 Polls
Lucknow (Special correspondent) - Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday kicked off a key meeting of the Uttar Pradesh BJP, where the party set a target of winning 325 to 350 seats in the 2027 Assembly elections, calling on the workers to prepare for a third consecutive term in office.
The other key leaders present at the meeting included BJP's state in-charge Vinod Tawde, national general secretary Smriti Irani and Gorakhpur MP Ravi Kishan.
Shah was the chief guest at the state working committee meeting held months before Uttar Pradesh goes to the polls early next year. It was also the first meeting of the panel since Union minister Pankaj Chaudhary took over as the state BJP president.
Harishchandra Srivastava, a member of the working committee, told PTI that the meeting was held under the chairmanship of Chaudhary, the Union Minister of State for Finance.
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, deputy chief ministers Keshav Prasad Maurya and Brajesh Pathak and several prominent leaders were present at the meeting held at the Dr Ram Manohar Lohia National Law University. Chaudhary lit a ceremonial lamp and paid floral tribute to portraits of Syama Prasad Mookerjee and Deendayal Upadhyaya as slogans of 'Vande Mataram' and 'Bharat Mata Ki Jai' rang through the auditorium.
According to a BJP statement issued on Friday evening, Maurya presented a political resolution at the meeting, calling for the BJP to repeat its 2017 victory in the 2027 Uttar Pradesh elections.
He urged the party workers to aim for 325 to 350 seats, setting aside personal ambitions and differences.
"Forget everything else and ensure that the lotus blooms in every Assembly constituency. Whoever gets the ticket, the lotus must win," Maurya said, emphasising that the party's victory should take precedence over individual aspirations.
He also called for coordination among MPs, MLAs, public representatives and organisational functionaries, particularly at the booth level.
Pathak, who supported the resolution, said Uttar Pradesh had undergone a major transformation since 2017 under Prime Minister Modi and Chief Minister Adityanath.
