Gorakhpur, March 2 : A day ahead of the sixth phase of Assembly polls in Uttar Pradesh, BJP's biggest trump card and state Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's dominance is likely to be continued in the party's stronghold Gorakhpur but the saffron brigade may face strong fight with Samajwadi Party on half of the nine seats.

The majority of residents are happy due to the rapid development of Gorakhpur City in the last three years on grounds of widening of roads; almost round the clock electricity; low crime graph; construction of All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) and Rs 8,600 crore fertilizer plant; as well as beautification of famous Ramgarh Tal.
However, unemployment and inflation is key factor on which youth and a certain group are not happy with the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Anti-incumbency is also a major factor in a few seats.
Advocate by profession, Sudhanshu Pandey, a resident of the Golghar area, told ANI that "AIIMS and fertilizer plant were established by the Yogi government but locals could not get employment as it was expected".
Meanwhile, Pandey lauded CM Adityanath for the development of Gorakhpur and said "wide roads, better electricity, converting Ramgarh Tal as a tourist hub and many more such things are really admirable work of Chief Minister".
The advocate also expects that the BJP will fulfil its IT hub and Industrial hub promises done in 2017 when the BJP had won eight out of nine Assembly constituencies in Gorakhpur following which the then MP, Yogi Adityanath, became the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh.
