Ahead of a crucial Assembly election in Uttar Pradesh in a few months, the BJP is planning an outreach programme involving the seven leaders from the state who were inducted into the union cabinet in this month's much-hyped reshuffle. Each of them - six from the BJP and Anupriya Patel of the Apna Dal - has received instructions from party chief JP Nadda, and will carry out a Jan Ashirwad yatra covering three-four parliamentary constituencies and four-five districts - an area of 300-400 km - to 'seek blessings from the public'.

In addition, the party will also celebrate Anna Mahotsav (a food grain festival) in the state on August 5, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi expected to speak via video link to around 80,000 ration vendors. All MPs have also been directed to visit Covid vaccination centres and motivate people to take their second (or first, as the case may be) doses of the vaccine. They have also been instructed by Prime Minister Modi to take the fight to the opposition on issues like farmers' protest and the Pegasus phone-hacking scandal by presenting the party's side to the public.
