Lucknow, August 21, 2026: Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said, "Girgit ki tarah rang badalne wali party ke log PDA ko kaise paribhashit karte hain. Kabhi inka 'P' Pichhda tha, phir Pandit ho gaya. Dekhna, ek din ye log 'P' se Pakistan kar denge.” He pointed out that the Samajwadi Party’s statements cannot be trusted, and no one can predict what they will say next. They are like vultures that dry…
On August 21, 2026, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath criticized the Samajwadi Party (SP) at the Kalyan Singh memorial in Lucknow. Adityanath highlighted how the SP's statements change over time - they once called themselves "Pichhda", but now identify as "Pandit". He warned that the SP's actions cannot be trusted, comparing the party to vultures that would eventually destroy the tree they perch on.
The chief minister pointed out that while Mayawati paid tribute to Kalyan Singh, the SP chief neither came personally nor spoke in memory of him. Adityanath deemed this disrespectful and shameful, particularly considering Kalyan Singh's dedication to Hindu values and Sanatan principles. The SP leader is accused of disrespecting great figures, a habit the BJP leader claims is common to the party.
Adityanath also praised Kalyan Singh's leadership during the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi movement, emphasizing that the former chief minister never compromised his principles. He noted that Kalyan Singh supported the movement, which led to the construction of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya. The BJP leader highlighted that the SP leadership removed Dr. B.R. Ambedkar's name from a medical college in Kannauj and another college in Mainpuri named after Lokmata Ahilyabai Holkar, before the BJP reinstated these names with new institutions.
Adityanath reminded the audience that Kalyan Singh's life serves as inspiration for every Indian who believes in the nation's first and Hindu values. He announced that a statue of Kalyan Singh will be placed at Uttar Pradesh's first cancer institute and a medical college in Bulandshahr bears his name.
The CM criticized the SP for failing to pay tribute to Kalyan Singh, unlike Prime Minister Narendra Modi who canceled his schedule to pay respects. Adityanath noted that Babu Singh gave UP a unique identity and inspired young people with his vision. He called upon the followers of Sanatan Dharma to honor Kalyan Singh's memory and uphold his legacy.
