Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Monday (February 1) attacked the Aam Aadmi Party convener Arvind Kejriwal accusing him of trying to create anarchy in the city by orchestrating incidents like Shaheen Bagh. The BJP leader said that democracy will be decided by ballots and not bullets.
Continuing his diatribe against the Shaheen Bagh protest, Yogi accused Kejriwal of sponsoring the blockade in the area and doing nothing to control the situation. He also alleged that the AAP government did not grant permission to register cases against those raised anti-India slogans during protests against the Centre.
“Arvind Kejriwal and his aides, while being in the government, are trying to create anarchy in Delhi by orchestrating incidents like Shaheen Bagh,” he said.
“Kejriwal didn’t believe in the Indian Army’s valour by questioning the surgical strikes or Indian government’s decision to abrogate Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir. He is more concerned about his future than the country. Expecting him to support government schemes to promote peace, harmony and growth is waste,” CM Yogi said.
