Yogi Adityanath made these remarks during an election rally at Motihari, supporting former Union Minister Radha Mohan Singh, the party candidate for the East Champaran Lok Sabha seat.

Cautioning people against the opposition’s agenda, CM Yogi said, “Under such a regime, daughters would be deprived of education, women would be restricted from going to markets, and they would be forced to wear burqas.”
“The INDI alliance’s manifesto includes a provision for granting Muslims the freedom to choose their food and drink, implying that it seeks to allow Muslims to consume beef. This would provoke anger among Hindus, who revere the cow as a sacred entity,” he added.
