'Nation doesn’t have high expectations of you': UP CM Yogi slams Rahul over 'Manusmriti' remarks

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath harshly criticized Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for his remarks regarding the Manusmriti and the party's conduct in Ayodhya. During a speech in Raebareli, Yogi emphasized the importance of upholding the Constitution and respecting India's traditions and heritage as a Leader of the Opposition. He accused Gandhi of insulting the nation's heritage and questioned his understanding of India's history, suggesting he study ancient Indian texts to comprehend Manu and Indian heritage.

Yogi further accused the Congress of questioning the existence of Lord Ram in Ayodhya and referring to the Emergency of 1975. He criticized Rahul Gandhi for making derogatory remarks about the Prime Minister of India, stating that such actions insult not only an individual but an institution of India. The UP CM urged Gandhi to refrain from irresponsible behavior that undermines public confidence in constitutional institutions.

Yogi also targeted the Congress state president, accusing him of duplicity during a visit to Hanumangarhi in Ayodhya. He alleged that the Congress leader had bowed before a mafia figure who had allegedly killed his brother, only to step outside and feasts on fish. Yogi claimed that such behavior weakened India's traditions, values, and ideals, threatening the future of the nation.
