"Lord Krishna Must Be Cursing": Yogi Adityanath Hits Back At Akhilesh Yadav
NDTV
It all started when a BJP leader invoked Krishna in the context of speculation over Yogi Adityanath contesting the election.
Lord Krishna is the recurring theme in the latest political battle in Uttar Pradesh, starring Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and his challenger Akhilesh Yadav.
Lord Krishna "must be cursing" those who were in power and did nothing for Mathura and Vrindavan, Yogi Adityanath said today at a government event in Aligarh, just days before election dates are announced in Uttar Pradesh.
"Some people must be seeing Lord Krishna in their dreams and must be telling them to at least cry now on your failures. What you could not do, the BJP government has done. Lord Krishna must be cursing them because he must be telling them when you were in power you did nothing for places like Mathura and Vrindavan," he said, referring to the two holy cities in UP linked to Hindu God Krishna.
He did not name Akhilesh Yadav, who had last evening commented that Lord Krishna had told him in his dreams that he would come to power in Uttar Pradesh.
