'Congress' yuvraj is raising questions on Chhath Maiya': Yogi Adityanath attacks Rahul Gandhi
This comes after Rahul Gandhi said that the BJP staged a "drama" and built a separate pond for PM Modi to take a dip in during Chhath Puja.
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Tuesday criticised Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, said that just as the Congress questioned Lord Ram and the Ram Temple, its 'yuvraj' is now raising questions on Chhath Maiya.
Addressing an election rally in Samastipur, CM Yogi said, "...Under PM Modi's leadership, there is development in Bihar. But RJD and Congress do not have Bihar's development on their agenda. The way Congress raised questions about Lord Ram and Ram Temple, the same way Congress' 'yuvraj' is raising questions on Chhath Maiya..."
This comes after the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, in Darbhanga, said that the BJP staged a "drama" and built a separate pond for PM Modi to take a dip in during Chhath Puja.
"PM Modi said that he will bathe on the Yamuna for Chhath. The Yamuna has dirty water. If someone drank it, they would either get sick or die. No one can go inside. The water is so dirty that if you enter it, you would get sick or get an infection. But Modi staged a drama. He built a small pond there. They will show you anything for elections. A pipe is installed from behind. Clean water is poured into it. The problem arose that someone took a photo of the pipe," the Congress leader said.
Meanwhile, in Bihar, the elections will have the main contest between the National Democratic Alliance and the Mahagathbandhan.
