Nine of the 10 assembly by-elections in Uttar Pradesh have been announced, but the Mirkipur election has been put on hold. The reason was that a petition was filed by Gorakhnath Baba, the BJP candidate from Mirkipur in 2022, but the hearing could not be completed and after Awadhesh Prasad After becoming Faizabad MP, Baba Gorakhnath withdrew the petition.
At an Election Commission press conference ahead of announcing by-elections in two states and several parliaments, just not declaring the Mirkipur seat has cost the entire BJP dearly. Keeping the opposition in power raises such a big question in this by-election that the BJP has no other option at the moment but to join forces.
Know where the PPP is wrong or if the PPP does not want elections to be held in Mirkipur at this time!
When the Election Commission’s press conference made it clear that the elections would not be held in Mirkipur as the assembly election issue was pending before the High Court, the BJP strategists lost their minds. In a hurry, Baba Gorakhnath, the BJP’s 2022 candidate from Mirkipur, was called to Lucknow by the organization and asked to withdraw the petition. Soon, a video of Gorakhnath Baba’s lawyer surfaced in which he admitted that yes, we are losing Awadhesh Prasad in the 2022 elections A petition was filed against him but we did not know the reason for our petition and therefore the elections here would be stopped.
After that, the blame game began. Both the group and the government blamed the mistake on Mirkipur 2022 candidate Gorakhnath Baba, but the opposition also had merit, saying the government deliberately allowed the Mirkipur elections to be postponed.

What turned out to be the biggest failure of the government was that the report from the Mirkipur elections was passed from the Ayodhya District Administration to the State Election Commission and reached the Delhi Election Commission but why the government had no clue about it.
It’s not a coincidence, it’s an experiment: Opposition
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath held several meetings in Mirkipur. Met with workers and local leaders. Several meetings were held with the organization. Still, how did this mistake happen, with the government not realizing that a two-year-old case was pending and elections in Mirkipur could be blocked.
There is absolutely no way the government did not know that the elections in Mirkipur could be stopped and the entire administration knew this. In this case, the opposition openly stated that the government was deliberately stopping the Mirkipur by-election as part of a conspiracy as a defeat in Mirkipur would destroy the entire Hindu base of the BJP after the Ayodhya defeat.
After being rebuked by the group, Baba Gorakhnath Baba went to court today to return the petition but regretted it as birds pecked at the fields. There are only 28 days left for the elections, so if a decision on the Mirkipur issue is not taken soon, the Mirkipur elections will be postponed. If petitions take a week to come back, it will be difficult to hold the Nov. 13 election because there are only 20 days left. In this case, the opposition’s postponement of the Mirkipur elections is an issue through which the opposition will once again make Ayodhya’s defeat a big issue in this election and the BJP will not be able to do anything about it.
Let us tell you that the opposition has also started saying that the BJP could not digest the defeat in Ayodhya and is now treating the defeat in Mirkipur as conspiracy and ploy to separate the Mirkipur election from the by-election.
