Preparations are underway for by-elections on 10 assembly seats in Uttar Pradesh. In such a situation, Shivpal Yadav will face CM Yogi in Katehari of Ambedkar Nagar, while Awadhesh Prasad’s organizational skills will be tested in Milkipur of Ayodhya. At the same time, Keshav Maurya will be tested in Phulpur of Prayagraj because Akhilesh Yadav has fielded his other big Dalit face Indrajit Saroj against Keshav Maurya and has given him the responsibility of Phulpur.
In such a situation, Milkipur, Katehari and Phoolpur, these three seats are now linked to the prestige of both the big leaders of BJP, CM Yogi and Deputy CM Keshav Maurya. Akhilesh Yadav has played his Dalit card on these three seats as well. The two leaders whom Akhilesh Yadav has made in-charge in Milkipur and Phoolpur both come from the Pasi community and are considered good organizers.
On the other hand, from the Bharatiya Janata Party, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has taken responsibility for both the seats of Milkipur and Katehari. Akhilesh Yadav has pitted Shivpal Yadav against Yogi Adityanath. Shivpal Yadav is also considered a master of the organization and in the Ghosi by-election held last year, Shivpal Yadav had shown his strength by defeating the BJP candidate. This time Shivpal Yadav will be directly in front of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath in the Katehari assembly by-election because the Chief Minister has taken the responsibility of this place on his shoulders.

These two seats became a matter of prestige for BJP in UP by-election! CM Yogi himself took charge
CM Yogi took charge in Milkipur-Katehari
Although by-elections of all 10 assembly constituencies of UP will be under the responsibility of CM Yogi, but especially two seats Milkipur and Katehari have been made a matter of prestige by CM Yogi Adityanath i.e. one seat is of Ayodhya, on which Avdhesh Prasad was MLA and became MP from Faizabad and the other seat is Kathari of Ambedkar Nagar from where Lalji Verma was MLA and became MP. Actually, Akhilesh Yadav has created problems for BJP by giving responsibility of these two seats to two big leaders and the loss of even one of these seats will directly raise questions on the government because the in-charge leaders of BJP are Chief Minister and Deputy Chief Minister.
On which seats will the by-election be held?
The 10 seats in UP where by-elections are to be held include Karhal, Milkipur, Sisamau, Kundarki, Ghaziabad, Phulpur, Majhawan, Katehari, Khair and Meerapur. Out of these, 9 seats have fallen vacant due to the MLAs being elected as MPs, while the Sisamau seat of Kanpur has fallen vacant due to the cancellation of the membership of SP leader Irfan Solanki after he was sentenced to 6 years in jail in a case.
