"Women are burnt alive and peasants get murdered in that state. If India has to be saved, UP will have to be saved first," the West Bengal Chief Minister said.
New Delhi: Amid ongoing Assembly Elections, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Monday (February 14, 2022) hit out at her Uttar Pradesh counterpart Yogi Adityanath and contended the chief minister of the state was not a 'yogi' (monk) but a 'bhogi' (worldly person).
The Trinamool Congress (TMC) supremo, who had visited Uttar Pradesh last week to campaign for Akhilesh Yadav's Samajwadi Party (SP), also said that her camp decided against contesting polls in UP in the 'larger interest' of the nation.
"Women are burnt alive and peasants get murdered in that state. The CM there is not a 'yogi' but a 'bhogi'. If India has to be saved, UP will have to be saved first," Banerjee said.
