Weeks before the Uttar Pradesh elections, Shikohabad MLA Mukesh Verma announced his resignation from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Thursday morning. Verma—an OBC (Other Backward Classes) leader—announced his resignation on Twitter and showed up at the residence of former state minister Swami Prasad Maurya, who also quit this week. Verma criticized the ruling BJP in UP for not addressing OBC issues.
