He is noted for his honesty and austere lifestyle and is still seen riding his scooter.[2] He was reelected as the president of BJP Uttar Pradesh in December 2012 on account of his excellent track record.[3]

After his appointment as the president, the BJP has recorded a landslide victory in the Municipal Elections by collecting 10 out of the 12 mayor seats and an increased vote percentage.[4] During his ongoing tenure BJP has also won Kannauj Civic Polls, kannauj is believed to be a citadel of the ruling Samajwadi Party but BJP gave SP a big jolt by winning Kannauj.[5]

Experts believe that if given a free hand Bajpai on account of his clean image, effective management and contact with workers will lead BJP to regain its lost glory in Uttar Pradesh. The organizational and political skills of Bajpai worked well for the BJP when the party won 71 out of the 80 seats in Uttar Pradesh in the General elections 2014, which is by far its best total.[6]
