LUCKNOW: The SP-BJP war of wards continued as chief minister Yogi Adityanath took pot shots at the former over alleged "indecent and vulgar" statements on social media, stating that while expecting ideal conduct from the SP may be futile, civilized society cannot tolerate such language.

He urged SP's top leadership to review its social media handles and ensure the use of decent, restrained and dignified language. On Saturday, the BJP filed an FIR against the media cell of the Samajwadi Party for making "derogatory remarks" against deputy chief minister Brajesh Pathak on the party's social media account on X.

The FIR was lodged under sections of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and the IT Act.

The SP media cell deleted the post, but Brajesh Pathak shared its screenshot from his X account. Responding to the same, Pathak had said the post reflected poorly on the SP's culture and standards.
