On March 11, the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) created history by winning its biggest mandate in UP ever. Repeating its model from Maharashtra and Haryana, the BJP decided not to declare a CM candidate for the UP polls. A decision will now be made after the BJP’s parliamentary party meeting on Saturday.
Modi’s trust in Sinha comes from his “Mr Clean" image. He is believed to be a no-nonsense, work-oriented minister. Sources close to Sinha said that during his time as Minister of State (MoS) Railways, he often “picked up the slack" when Cabinet Minister Suresh Prabhu dropped the ball. “Suresh Prabhu confined himself to bringing in new technology while Sinha was largely looking after the day-to-day affairs. He impressed Modi during his time in railways and that is why he was given independent charge of Telecom Ministry after the Cabinet reshuffle," a source said.
