UP Deputy CM Keshav Prasad Maurya Expresses Ambition to Become Chief Minister The Deputy Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, Keshav Prasad Maurya, has publicly stated his desire to become the Chief Minister of the state, marking a significant development ahead of the 2027 assembly elections.

The party’s focus on reclaiming power in the state underscores its determination to secure a third term in governance. In an interview with ABP News, Maurya openly expressed his aspiration to lead the state, stating, “My ambition is to become the Chief Minister, but it will not happen based on my wish alone. My party’s leadership will decide who takes what role.” When asked whether the 2027 election would be fought on the face of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath or his own, Maurya emphasized that the decision lies with the party, not individual leaders. He reiterated that the BJP has historically determined such matters, and all members must accept the outcome. Maurya also addressed the role of the party’s leadership in shaping future roles, stating, “The party’s leadership will decide everyone’s role, not me. My ambition is to become the Chief, but it depends on the party’s direction.” He highlighted the BJP’s primary goal of securing a third term in UP, stressing that the party’s central leadership and the legislative assembly will determine the final choice of the Chief Minister. The Deputy CM further criticized former Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav, challenging him to prove his integrity by claiming no one has accepted bribes for jobs.#bjp #yogi_adityanath #keshav_prasad_maurya #akhilesh_yadav #up_deputy_cm
