Under Yogi Adityanath, Uttar Pradesh is making a break from its past

Law and order has been UP’s bane and lawlessness reached its zenith during the SP regime. Adityanath took the menace by its horns.

Adityanath’s first decision as CM was to waive Rs 36,000 crore worth of loans of over 86 lakh farmers. Since then, UP has become the first state to make DBT payment to its farmers. (PTI Photo/Manvender Vashist)

When a respected English news magazine adjudged UP chief minister Yogi Adityanath as the best performing CM across big Indian states on Independence Day eve, it was an endorsement of his government’s work in the past two-and-a-half years. The Adityananth government has already reached milestones that a majority of previous governments couldn’t accomplish in their full tenure.
