• Uttar Pradesh cabinet expansion efforts intensify after CM Yogi Adityanath's meetings in Delhi.
• Rebel Samajwadi Party MLA Pooja Pal is widely discussed as a potential new minister in the Yogi government.
• Pal was expelled from SP for praising CM Yogi's actions against Atiq Ahmed, who orchestrated her husband's murder.
• She campaigned for BJP candidates in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections and belongs to the Dalit community.
