Bhojpuri songs on Yogi Adityanath seem to be the new rage in Uttar Pradesh. Earlier, during the elections, the songs were about requests and hopes of Adityanath becoming the chief minister. Now they are about the celebration of the achievement of this goal.

While some songs congratulate him on his poll victory, others portray him as an avatar of Lord Rama. The songs, released by several Bhojpuri singers, are popular in not only Adityanath’s constituency Gorakhpur, but also in the northern part of Uttar Pradesh. Companies that usually release popular music have recorded these songs owing to their good reception.
