During a public rally, Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath criticized the Congress Party, claiming it has deviated from the principles of Mahatma Gandhi and leaders like Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. He labeled it as “Sonia Congress” and “Rahul Congress,” accusing it of distorting its legacy. Adityanath also alleged that the Congress manifesto resembles that of the Muslim League, intending to redistribute SC, ST, and OBC reservations to Muslims, a move opposed by the NDA and BJP.
