BJP Picks UP Minister And Jat Leader Bhupendra Singh Chaudhary As State Chief | Read

The Bharatiya Janata Party today announced several top-level appointments in various states. In a significant political play, Bhupendra Singh Chaudhary, a minister in the Uttar Pradesh government and a member of the Legislative Council, has been made its UP President. Mr Chaudhary is from Western UP's Jat community and has reportedly been appointed to consolidate Jat votes for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections as the traditional BJP voter base might be slipping away from the ruling party after last year's massive protests against the contentious and now-revoked farm bills.
