Lucknow: In Uttar Pradesh, veteran leaders are trying to create manipulation and political equations to save their political forts in the election for the post of zilla panchayat president. Out of 75 districts in UP, 22 zilla panchayat presidents have been elected unopposed, out of which 21 belong to BJP and one from SP. Meanwhile, 53 zilla panchayat presidents are now scheduled to vote on July 3.
Uttar Pradesh is going to have assembly elections next year, which is why the election of zilla panchayat president is seen as the semi-finals of 2022. That is why leaders are making every effort to occupy the zilla panchayat. Most of the 53 seats in the state which are scheduled to go to polls on Saturday are in direct contest between the BJP and the SP. Out of these, 37 zilla panchayat seats are where only two candidates are in the fray. Leaders of both parties are manipulating their respective victories.
