UP's dispirited opposition has given Yogi Adityanath a much-needed breather

The relentless squabbling in the Opposition camp in Uttar Pradesh has provided the much-needed breather to Chief Minister Adityanath (pictured), who today ranks among the star campaigners of the Bharatiya Janata Party. His government is so confident of victory in the coming bypolls to 11 Assembly seats that he hasn't begun canvassing in these constituencies yet, although he has been campaigning arduously for the saffron party in poll-bound Maharashtra and Haryana. After wrapping up his election rallies in the two states, the chief minister will finally kick-start his campaign in UP on Tuesday with 11 rallies spread over three days.
