AYODHYA: Chief minister Yogi Adityanath on Sunday launched a scathing attack on the Samajwadi Party (SP), accusing it of opposing everything that enhanced the pride of Sanatan Dharma.

Addressing a rally in Milkipur in support of BJP candidate Chandrabhanu Paswan for the upcoming bypoll, he alleged that SP chief Akhilesh Yadav had been criticising the Prayagraj Mahakumbh on social media even as the global event had already drawn 34 crore devotees and left international dignitaries in awe.

"Look at the SP chief's social media posts from the past two months—he has only criticised the Prayagraj Mahakumbh. While 34 crore devotees have taken a holy dip at the Sangam, and international dignitaries are left spellbound, the SP is feeling the pain. If something enhances the glory of Sanatan Dharma, the SP is bound to oppose it."
