My Take: Is UP ready to break out from the Mandir-Mandal narrative?

If you ever wanted to recognise the gap between political rhetoric and ground reality, turn to UP five months before a crucial election. As viral fever surges, scores of children have been affected across India's most populous state. But, will healthcare facilities be an issue in the 2022 elections? Already the pandemic has exposed the inadequate primary health care centres. So, will the debate for UP 2022 centre around human development or will it return to religiously polarising issues?
