Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath visited the ancestral village of Bharatiya Janata Party’s late MLA Manvendra Singh, Dhakiya Parvezpur, on Wednesday to convey his heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family members.
Chief Minister Yogi paid emotional tribute to Manvendra Singh by garlanding his portrait.
During the visit, Yogi Adityanath also met with the family members of the late MLA and assured them of all possible assistance.
It is noteworthy that Manvendra Singh, the BJP MLA from Dadraul, had been battling liver disease and passed away during treatment in Delhi on January 5.

The presence of the chief minister moved the family members deeply, leading to uncontrollable tears. In response, the chief minister consoled them.
After spending approximately 30 minutes with the family, Chief Minister Yogi proceeded to Bareilly. In view of the arrival of the chief minister, there were stringent security arrangements in the village.
