As per news report of NDTV, dubbing his meeting with the UP Governor a "courtesy call", Radha Mohan Singh said, "Since I became the in-charge of the state, I have not met the Governor". Radha Mohan Singh was given charge of the party's state unit in November last year. The 30-minute meeting raised eyebrows in the backdrop of reports of unrest within the state BJP about Yogi Adityanath continuing in the top post. While the BJP made it clear that the Chief Minister will stay, for now, the timing of the meeting puzzled many.
