Saharanpur (UP), Apr 12 (UNI) Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Friday compared the mafia with demon (Raktbeej) and said that they should not be allowed to flourish again in Uttar Pradesh under any circumstances.
Addressing an election rally in Deoband in support of BJP candidate Raghav Lakhan Pal Sharma from Saharanpur Lok Sabha seat, the Chief Minister said, "Congress and SP used to capitulate to them, but today some mafia are behind bars, while others have met their fate. Their influence has completely ended."
He highlighted the clear division in this election between two opposing ideologies. "On one side are those driven by caste divisions, while on the other are individuals dedicated to nationalism. On one hand, there are those intent on tearing apart the social fabric, while on the other hand, under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi, there are people who believe in upholding India's dignity," he said.
