Uttar Pradesh Election Results 2022, UP Election 2022: Uttar Pradesh on Thursday gave a thumbs to the “double-engine” BJP government led by Yogi Adityanath who will return as the chief minister for a second straight term — first time in the the last 37 years. Trends available so far show that the BJP is leading on 268 seats while the SP-RLD alliance was a distant second, leading on 128 seats. On the other hand, the BSP and the Congress struggled to touch double-digit mark. These elections are seen a litmus test for the Yogi Adityanath-led BJP government which is battling anti-incumbency factor along with a reinvigorated Samajwadi Party, which has joined hands with the Rashtriya Lok Dal.

The exit polls have predicted a clear victory for the Yogi Adityanath-led BJP government with one of them projecting a repeat of the BJP’s 2017 performance when it won a whopping over 300 seats in the 403-member Assembly. While these polls are seen as a direct contest between the BJP and the Samajwadi Party, they will also decide the fate of the Congress and Mayawati-led Bahujan Samaj Party, which are on the verge of facing existential crisis in the state.
