Congress trying to push country towards slavery, says U.P. CM Yogi Adityanath

Yogi Adityanath accused Congress of corruption and attempting to push India towards slavery. He praised BJP for upholding the country's self-respect and confidence. He also highlighted the 'double-engine government' of BJP which had lifted Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh from the 'Bimaru' category. Polls for all 230 seats in Madhya Pradesh will be held on November 17.

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Tuesday, November 7, 2023 alleged the Congress was making a “malicious attempt” to push the country towards slavery and accused it of distorting the history.

Slapping charges of corruption on the Congress, Mr. Adityanath addressed a meeting in Shujalpur in poll-bound Madhya Pradesh and said: “The Congress is making a malicious attempt to push the country towards slavery, whereas the Bharatiya Janata Party is known for upholding the country’s self-respect and confidence.”

Mr. Adityanath, who is campaigning for Shivraj Singh Chouhan’s government ahead of State polls, threw another jibe at the Congress, saying that while the BJP’s ‘double-engine government’ had lifted Madhya Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh from the ‘Bimaru’ or laggard category, the same could not be said about Congress-led States. All 230 seats in Madhya Pradesh will go to polls on November 17.
