Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Home Minister Amit Shah, Chief Ministers of BJP-ruled states and many Union ministers were present at the oath takin ceremony. In total, 52 ministers were sworn in. Out of these, maximum 20 ministers are from the OBC community.

In 2017, as many as 22 leaders of the OBC community were appointed as ministers in the Cabinet. The total number of ministers in the government was 60 but the number has come down to 52 this time. Many senior leaders like Dinesh Sharma, Siddharthnath Singh, Shrikant Sharma and Jai Pratap Singh have been dropped from the Yogi Cabinet. There were two Deputy CMs in Yogi Adityanath’s team. Among them is Keshav Prasad Maurya, who lost this time, was the Deputy CM in the first term as well. The other Deputy Chief Minister is Brajesh Pathak, who joined BJP before the 2017 Legislative Assembly elections. Yogi Adityanath, who led his party to a massive victory, is the first Chief Minister in 37 years to return to power after completing a full term in the state. The BJP retained power in Uttar Pradesh by winning 255 out of 403 constituencies, securing a 41.29 per cent vote share. This is only the second time in over three decades that a party has won two consecutive assembly polls in the state. At the meeting of the party’s newly elected MLAs, Yogi Adityanath said the Prime Minister’s inclusive mantra’ of Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas had its impact on the UP poll results, and thanked him and Union Home Minister Amit Shah for guiding him through the first term.
