19 BJP MPs & 1 BSP MP frm UP asked more Qs than the national avg of 66 questions. 11 UP MPs asked more than 100 questions in this period, significantly higher than the national average. Follow my detailed research piece & Twitter thread (4/n) @eOrganiser - bit.ly/3pQzk6p
In 17th Loksabha till now, UP MPs on an avg participated in 25.4 debates vs a national avg of participation in 21.2 debates. But @yadavakhilesh participated only in 4 debates (5/n) - bit.ly/3pQzk6p
UP MPs presented on an avg 0.3 pvt member bills same as the national avg. @yadavakhilesh & Sonia Ji presented ZERO private member bills in the parliament. 9 UP MPs presented pvt member bills in the parliament. All these 9 MPs are from @BJP4India (6/n) - bit.ly/3pQzk6p
In contrast, UP’s current chief minister @myogiadityanath was very ACTIVE when he was a parliamentarian. For instance, during 2014-2017 (16th Loksabha), Yogi’s participation in parliament 👇👇was above even the national average - (7/n) - bit.ly/3pQzk6p
Surprisingly UP’s ex-CM @yadavakhilesh neither goes to his constituency-Azamgarh much, not does he attend parliament properly. Leaders whose rely only on Caste-Religion equations for electoral victories have no incentive to be with people or spend quality time in parliament(8/n)

Many Tweeples are giggling on the ‘Gomutra Party’ by ‘Hindu Mahasabha’.
Some facts to spoil their happiness. Follow the thread
1 - ‘Swami Chakrapani’ who hosted the Gomutra Party, was designated as a fraud ascetic by Akhil Bhartiya Akhara Parishad, apex body of Sadhus
2- Hindu Mahasabha, which was founded by the likes of Madan Mohan Malviya & Lala Lajpat Rai, is not politically much active now. Anyways ‘Swami Chakrapani’ just self claims to be its president. The official website does not even mention his name.
3- In a recent TV intv with @SushantBSinha, @yogrishiramdev, whose Patanjali Research Institute has extensively researched on medicinal usage of Cow Urine (Bos Indicus) clarified that though Gomutra is effective in various other diseases, but not in viral infections like Corona
