NEW DELHI: Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath , during a public meeting in Bhiwani on Monday, highlighted the Bharatiya Janata Party ( BJP ) government's achievements in Haryana , emphasizing improvements in connectivity and the establishment of prestigious institutions such as IITs, IIMs, and AIIMS, alongside new medical colleges.

In a sharp attack on the Congress party, CM Yogi drew a cultural comparison between the two political factions, stating, "Bhagwan Shri Ram has once again come to Ayodhya . The whole nation is celebrating, but these people of the Congress even hate this. This is the difference between the culture of Ram and the culture of Rome."

He further accused Congress leaders of being disconnected from India's cultural roots, remarking, "On one hand, Lord Ram has come to Ayodhya, and on the other hand, those that have been brought up in Rome, who call themselves 'accidental Hindus.'"

Reflecting on the impact of a "double engine" government, Yogi Adityanath credited the rapid development in Uttar Pradesh to BJP leadership at both the state and national levels. "In 2014, PM Modi became the Prime Minister, and when, in 2017, the BJP came in Uttar Pradesh and a double engine government was formed, there was fast-paced development in the state."

Thanking the local constituency for supporting the BJP, he added, "I would like to thank the people of this particular constituency that they never let the Congress open its account here, because the people here know that whenever the Congress party comes, everything will be ruined."

The Chief Minister accused the Congress of engaging in divisive and appeasement politics, stating, "They divided the nation for their own benefit, played with Hindu sentiments, and engaged in appeasement politics. In the name of development, they just filled their pockets and did nothing for which the country could be proud."

Highlighting Haryana’s progress under BJP governance, Yogi Adityanath noted, "In the last ten years, you've seen significant improvements in Haryana, including better roads, the establishment of IITs, IIMs, and AIIMS, as well as a district medical college. Initiatives like the Har Ghar Nal and the Gareeb Kalyan Yojana have been implemented. 80 crore people are availing the benefits of free ration."
