Gorakhpur: 

Yogi Adityanath today filed his nomination from Uttar Pradesh’s Gorakhpur, where he is contesting his first state election, with the BJP using the occasion to project a united front. Union Home Minister Amit Shah was by his side.

Before taking his first formal step towards fighting the UP election, the five-time MP prayed at the Gorakhnath temple – where he remains head priest – and performed a havan.
