After swearing in, Yogi Adityanath to take charge as CM in Lok Bhawan, followed by a meeting with ministers. Yogi will address press conference thereafter at 5PM.
Adityanath enjoys considerable popularity in the state and is known to make provocative statements, be it about Islam or Pakistan.
A strong votary of construction of the Ram temple at the disputed site in Ayodhya, Adityanath drove BJP's Hindutva campaign in the eastern UP in the just concluded Assembly polls.
He said he would follow Prime Minister Modi's slogan "sab ka saath, sab ka vikas" and ensure all round development of the the country's most populous state.
"I am confident that the state will march on the path of development," he said in his first brief media interaction at the Raj Bhawan.
The Yogi said his efforts would be to provide "good governance" in the state.
After his election, Adityanath met Governor Ram Naik and said he was invited to form the government in UP.
Two deputy CMs
Maurya, the MP from Phulpur in Allahabad, will be the deputy chief minister apart from senior BJP leader and Lucknow Mayor Dinesh Sharma.
State BJP chief Keshav Prasad Maurya, who was himself in contention for the top job besides union minister Manoj Sinha, first announced Adityanath's election amid speculation that the RSS pushed for Yogi's candidature.
Ending the suspense exactly a week after BJP won a three- fourths majority in the key Hindi heartland state and stormed back to power after 15 years, the 44-year-old five-term MP from Gorakhpur was unanimously elected the BJP legislature party leader at a meeting of the newly elected MLAs.
