Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath will meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday. Yogi, who arrived here on a two-day visit on Thursday, will meet the Prime Minister at 10:45 am. According to the schedule, Yogi will also meet BJP national president JP Nadda in the afternoon.
Earlier on Thursday, he had met senior BJP leader and Union Home Minister Amit Shah. Adityanath's visit to the national capital to meet the BJP top brass, including its president Nadda, comes close on the heels of the party holding a series of review meetings in Lucknow, which had fuelled speculation of a ministerial reshuffle in the state.
“Met respected Union Home Minister Amit Shah in New Delhi as a courtesy and received his guidance. Heartfelt thanks to the respected home minister for his time,” Chief Minster tweeted in Hindi along with a photo that shows him presenting to Shah a copy of the report 'Solution of Migrant Crisis'.
Apna Dal (S) leader Anupriya Patel, a BJP ally from Uttar Pradesh who was a minister in the first Modi-led government, also met Shah, in an indication that the saffron party is reaching out to its partners as it works to bolster its position in the state which will go to the assembly polls early next year. The development comes a day after Jitin Prasada quit the Congress and joined the saffron party. After Adityanath met Shah, Prasada called on the Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister.
