Yogi Adityanath Mounts Fresh Attack On Arvind Kejriwal

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath escalated his sharp attack on Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) supremo and said that Arvind Kejriwal knew only politics of agitation and dharna. Yogi Adityanath was alluding to AAP's threat of staging a protest dharna in front of the election commission office if the UP chief minister was not banned from electioneering in Delhi. Yogi Adityanath was addressing a large election meeting in the Kirari area of Delhi on Tuesday.

The UP Chief Minister expressed the view that Kejriwal had on earlier occasions also staged dharnas and protests in various places including the office of the Lieutenant Governor of Delhi.

The BJP leader remarked that Kejriwal and AAP leaders are afraid of him because he speaks the truth. The UP Chief Minister said that there was zero tolerance for rioting in his state.

Referring to the Shaheen Bagh protests, Yogi Adityanath observed that they were a part of a larger design. There was a deep-rooted conspiracy to put roadblocks in the BJP government's development policies, he added.

Yogi Adityanath recalled that three days ago when campaigning for Delhi polls reached a feverish pitch, a Pakistan Minister expressed his support to AAP and Congress. Why is a failed state like Pakistan, a haven of terrorists, coming out in support of AAP and Congress? Yogi asked.

On the other hand, AAP supremo Arvind Kejriwal challenged the BJP to reveal its chief ministerial face.At a function at which AAP released its manifesto in the national capital, the Delhi chief minister asserted that development was his party's main thrust.
