The second phase of polling in Uttar Pradesh on April 26 holds high stakes for several prominent faces, including actress Hema Malini, actor Arun Govil, and former BSP leader Danish Ali. In the eight constituencies going to polls – Amroha, Meerut, Baghpat, Ghaziabad, Gautam Buddha Nagar, Bulandshahr, Aligarh, and Mathura – unemployment has emerged as a major concern, with youth expressing anger over recruitment exam paper leaks and lack of job opportunities. The BJP had won seven of these seats in 2019, with Amroha being the lone exception, where Danish Ali had emerged victorious on a joint BSP-SP-RLD ticket.

Ahead of the impending Lok Sabha elections, Lok Sabha MP Danish Ali, recently suspended from the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP), has made a significant political move by joining the Congress party. This decision follows Ali's meeting with former Congress president Sonia Gandhi at her residence in New Delhi's 10 Janpath, where he sought her blessings just five days prior. Speculation is rife that the Congress party intends to nominate Ali as its candidate for the Amroha constituency in Uttar Pradesh, a seat acquired through negotiations with the Samajwadi Party during their seat-sharing discussions. #DanishAli #BSP #Congress #LokSabhaMP #JoiningCongress #LS2024 #PoliticalShift #PartySwitch #Election2024 #NewAlliance #PoliticalJourney #UnityInDiversity #CongressParty #IndianPolitics #LokSabhaElections #BharatJodoNyayYatra #PoliticalTransition #LeadershipChange #Democracy #PoliticalAffiliation ~HT.178~PR.152~ED.194~GR.125~
