NDTV
The Congress leader's remarks came after Yogi Adityanath addressing an event in Lucknow on Sunday had said that Pakistan and Afghanistan are troubled by the Taliban, but the Taliban know that if they move towards India, an airstrike is awaited for them.
Following Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's "airstrike" remarks, Congress spokesperson Gourav Vallabh on Monday said the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader is making such statements despite having no knowledge about "defence".
Speaking to ANI, Mr Vallabh said, "Yogi Adityanath is the chief minister of Uttar Pradesh. If he was the defence minister, he should have talked. The man who has no knowledge about defence is making statements about airstrikes. It was Indira Gandhi and other Congress leaders who laid down their lives for the country. Many Congress members lost their lives in the fight against terrorism."

Asked about Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav's statement mentioning Mohammed Ali Jinnah, Mr Vallabh said, "Mohd Ali Jinnah and Shyama Prasad Mukerjee backed the two-nation theory. LK Advani was the first leader to visit the memorial of Jinnah. Those who polarise the people in the name of Jinnah shall start talking about the problems of the youth and talk about the unemployment of Uttar Pradesh. They should also talk about women security in the state. Many lost lives during COVID. The people of Uttar Pradesh will not let Jinnah become the point of polarisation."
