Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will take power in Uttar Pradesh with an "overwhelming majority", said Amit Shah, Union home minister. As a result, he disputed the assertion that the Samajwadi Party (SP), which is forming alliances with smaller parties, will challenge the BJP. Akhilesh Yadav recently predicted his party will win 400 of the 403 seats in the UP Assembly.

"Politics has nothing to do with physics, it has everything to do with chemistry." Voters are aware, they won't be guided by caste equations anymore. I have extensively toured the state and can say this with confidence that BJP will form a government with an overwhelming majority in Uttar Pradesh,” Shah told HT Media Limited’s Chairperson and Editorial Director Shobhana Bhartia.

He added that BJP's position is strong in Uttar Pradesh.

Shah said the protest by farmers has no impact on the state since the government has repealed the three laws that triggered the agitation.
