Yogi Adityanath sacks Om Prakash Rajbhar from UP govt

Rajbhar had recently sent a letter to the chief minister stating that he was resigning from the Cabinet but was not accepted then.

UP Guv accepts Adityanath’s request, dismisses Rajbhar with immediate effect

Earlier on April 16, Rajbhar had announced that his party will go 'solo' in the ensuing Lok Sabha polls.

Dubbing the alliance as 'mahamilavati (highly adulterated) opportunists', Modi said in Kannauj that he doesn't believe in politics of caste.

Rajbhar said he was ready to resign from the cabinet but his resignation was not being accepted.

This comes after an interview where Yogi asks SC to give verdict and claims ‘...we will resolve Ram Janmabhoomi dispute within 24 hours.’

Suheldev Bhartiya Samaj Party's Arvind Rajbhar said the coming together of arch-rivals SP and BSP in UP had posed 'big challenge' for BJP.

Om Prakash Rajbhar is known to criticize the policies of the Modi and Yogi governments at frequent intervals.

According to Bholendra, secretary of Avadh Prant, the Trishul Diksha programme is held from time to time to inculcate the feeling of patriotism.

Mr Rajbhar also warned the BJP that it will suffer losses in the Lok Sabha elections if it did not clarify its stand on reservation issue.

The minister alleged that the BJP has always ignored the demands of OBCs and MBCs.
