Lucknow, 08 July (HS): Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi

Adityanath routinely pays tribute to former Prime Minister Chandra Shekhar,

describing him as a committed socialist, a devoted parliamentarian (Young

Turk), and a leader who championed the interests of the poor and farmers. Both

politicians have deep roots in Uttar Pradesh's eastern regions. Yogi Adityanath

frequently pays honor to the former Prime Minister on his birth and death

anniversaries, emphasizing his simplicity, nationalist ideals, and his long

countrywide padayatra (foot march) from Kanyakumari to Rajghat.

Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath penned a post on X, which

reads as follows: “On the death anniversary of Jananayak, former Prime Minister

Chandrashekhar Ji, humble tribute. From the streets to the halls of Parliament,

he remained the voice of the neglected, the suffering, and the deprived. His

simplicity, ideological steadfastness, and sensitivity toward the last person

in society continue to guide the nation's democracy even today.”
