CM Yogi Adityanath calls Rahul Gandhi 'Namuna', reveals how he benefits BJP

Calling Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi a "namuna”, Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath slammed the Congress effort of “deliberately keeping the Ayodhya controversy alive”.

In an interview with ANI, the CM slammed Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra, calling it a “Bharat Todo Abhiyan”. “Gandhi criticises India outside India. The country has understood his nature and intentions. In India's politics, Bharatiya Janata Party ke liye Rahul jaise kuch namune rehne chahiye jisse ek rasta hamesha ke liye saaf hota rahe aur acha rahe," he told ANI.

Adityanath also accused the Congress of failing to fulfil developmental promises. "Ek Bharat ko Shresht Bharat nahi hona chahiye? You should ask them, then, what were they doing for six to ten decades? He should have asked his grandfather, grandmother and father. Why didn't they do it at that time?" he said.

According to CM Yogi, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had realised the vision Congress failed to implement. Yogi spoke about the BJP regime’s initiatives such as the construction of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya, abolition of triple talaq, and promotion of the Kumbh Mela.
