The Uttar Pradesh government has decided to link the details of the newly-wed couples with DBT and Aadhaar to prevent any repeat of the fraud committed in Ballia in the Chief Minister's Mass Marriage Scheme.

Yogi Adityanath will be sworn in later today for a record second term as Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister. Ahead of the grand ceremony, a meeting at his home with some newly-elected MLAs and others triggered speculation about his new ministers.

BJP candidates Asim Arun, who had quit the Indian Police Service, and Rajeshwar Singh, who resigned from the Enforcement Directorate, to fight the Uttar Pradesh assembly polls, were leading from their respective seats on Thursday.

Rebel UP Congress leader, Aditi Singh, will contest the Uttar Pradesh election from Rae Bareli, the last Congress bastion in the state, while former Kanpur top cop, Asim Arun, will contest the polls from Kannauj, the BJP said today.

Ahead of the Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections, former IPS officer Asim Arun on Saturday joined Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Lucknow.

The Uttar Pradesh government on Monday approved the voluntary retirement request of Kanpur Police Commissioner Asim Arun, official sources said.
