Lucknow, August 16: Another new record has been added to the name of Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Friday. He has made a record of being the Chief Minister of UP for the longest time at one time.
Along with forming the BJP government in UP for the second time in a row, Yogi Adityanath has become the Chief Minister who has been in power for the longest time continuously.
He has made a record of being the Chief Minister for 7 years and 148 days continuously. By adding a feather in his cap, he has left behind former Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav, Mulayam Singh Yadav and Bahujan Samaj Party chief Mayawati.
Yogi Adityanath has now become one of the Chief Ministers with the longest continuous tenure in UP.
Before Yogi Adityanath, Congress Chief Minister Dr Sampurnanand has been on this post for the longest time. Leaders of regional parties Chaudhary Charan Singh, Mulayam Singh Yadav, Mayawati and Akhilesh Yadav are nowhere to be seen anywhere near Chief Minister Yogi.
It is worth mentioning that Mayawati took oath four times and Mulayam Singh took oath three times, but still they could not break the record made by Yogi Adityanath.Chief Minister Yogi is counted among those leaders under whose leadership a party formed the government for the second time in the state.
When Yogi took oath as Chief Minister on March 25 , 2022, he broke the 37-year-old record of Narayan Dutt Tiwari. Narayan Dutt took oath as Chief Minister for the second time in undivided Uttar Pradesh in the year 1985.
After the formation of Uttarakhand, Yogi is the first Chief Minister of the state who came to power for the second consecutive time. Not only this, Chief Minister Yogi has also made a record of breaking the myth of losing the chair by visiting to Noida.
