Kannauj, May 11: Taking a jab at Akhilesh Yadav during his election rally held at at Karia Jhala ground, Jhinjhak, Rasoolabad, on Saturday, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said that the SP chief’s decision to contest from Kannauj stemmed from the I.N.D.I. alliance’s inability to secure a candidate for the constituency. Yogi added, “When he had the chance, he worked to spoil the essence of Kannauj’s perfume.”
Yogi stated, “They initially fielded one candidate, only to revoke his ticket later. Subsequently, another candidate was nominated, who eventually withdrew from the race. When a third candidate was proposed, they declined. With no viable option left, the SP President now claims he’s eager to serve.”
Continuing his criticism of Akhilesh Yadav, Yogi remarked, “During his tenure, Uttar Pradesh witnessed frequent outbreaks of violence. The safety of women and business owners was compromised, while the rights of the underprivileged were trampled upon. The former Chief Minister even glorified rioters by inviting them to his residence. However, now you can witness how the new Uttar Pradesh of the new India handles rioters and those who disrupt peace.”
During his address, he urged the public to reelect ubrata Pathak, the BJP candidate for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections in Kannauj. The CM called upon ordinary citizens to canvass from door to door, expressing their preference for Rambhakts (devotees of Lord Ram) over Ramdrohis (those opposed to Lord Ram).
CM Yogi asserted that in the new India, there exists security, welfare for the impoverished, development, and reverence for heritage and faith. He contrasted the SP’s actions of firing upon Ram devotees and withdrawing cases against terrorists with the BJP’s accomplishment of constructing the Ram temple. Yogi attributed the construction of the grand Ram temple in Ayodhya, after a hiatus of 500 years, to the collective effort of the electorate who chose the BJP governments in both Delhi and Lucknow.
“After this gap, Lord Ram celebrated Holi at his birthplace, observed his birth anniversary, and adorned his forehead with a Surya Tilak. The world was fortunate to witness the rejuvenated Ayodhya.
We witnessed the realization of our ancestors’ dreams and resolve unfolding right in front of us,” he asserted.
