Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath  claimed that previous governments in the state never provided electricity on the occasions of Holi and Diwali but there was always power on Eid and Muharram.

He also alleged that the Samajwadi Party (SP) and other Opposition parties are doing politics at the nation’s cost.

While addressing a public rally in Raebareli, Yogi Adityanath asked, “Rahul Gandhi opposes India’s Kashmir policy in Parliament. Should such people be supported in politics?”

“You want bullet train development or ‘puncture wali cycle‘ in the state? Yogi in state and Modi at Centre will bring bullet train-like development here,” he added.

The Uttar Pradesh CM went on to add that Samajwadi Party and other parties are doing politics at the nation’s cost.

“Congress, SP, BSP are toying with the security of the nation and society… Earlier, there used to be no electricity on Holi/Diwali, but on Eid/Muharram,” he said.

Assembly elections are being held in Uttar Pradesh from February 10 to March 7 in seven phases to elect all 403 members of the Uttar Pradesh Assembly.

The fourth phase will be held on February 23 while the results of the elections will be declared on March 10.
