In the marathon Lok Sabha election, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's relentless campaign for the BJP drew both divine invocations and promises of development. Despite addressing 200 rallies and covering five to six constituencies daily, the BJP saw a sharp decline in seats won.

Adityanath's campaign was bolstered by heavyweights like Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah, yet the INDIA bloc surged, taking control in opposition. The Samajwadi Party led in 35 constituencies, while the BJP managed to clinch 28.

The bulldozer monk's stern policies against crime and his involvement in the Ram Temple movement showcased his influence. However, the campaign outcomes indicate a shifting political landscape ahead.
