Yeah ! He looks like the man of the moment in UP BJP

Lucknow: Pictures do not lie ! Otherwise a low-profile RSS man and the organisation secretary in Uttar Pradesh unit of Bharatiya Janata Party, Sunil Bansal, may have been in the denial mode as being the one who is calling the shots in the state but his demeanour and the cosy comfort he looks to be in with the Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath says a different story.

The photograph posted on CM Yogi's twitter handle about a meeting with his two deputies Keshav Prasad Maurya and Dinesh Sharma along with Sunil Bansal has only fortified the reports that the latter is in a pole position. There had been a slew of rumours about Bansal, being the representative of RSS in UP, having enjoyed all the powers before and after elections and the way he is sitting with his leg on the sofa in font of the CM only confirms it.

According to a senior BJP functionary, Sunil Bansal had all the role in the strategy making and its execution during the election campaign and after that. His name was also floated for the top post but the fact remains that he enjoys a very very powerful and enviable position in the BJP organisation and now in the government as well.

In the manner, some bureaucrats have been trying to be on his right side in order to get prime postings , is anybody's guess that why are they doing so. As a matter of fact, the party sources suggested he will be having a major role in the administrative reshuffle which is in the offing.
