Congress leader Udit Raj has criticised Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath over comments concerning Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav.

A video circulating on social media shows Raj making the remarks in Delhi. The video was published by ANI on social media. Raj questioned Adityanath’s standing in Uttar Pradesh and said he should return to Uttarakhand.

What Udit Raj said

“The fact is, Yogi Adityanath is an outsider; he should be sent back to Uttarakhand. What is he doing in Uttar Pradesh?” Raj said.

He also defended Akhilesh Yadav by referring to his family background. Raj said Yadav was the son of former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mulayam Singh and therefore carried a significant political legacy.

“Akhilesh Yadav is the son of a former Chief Minister; he carries a significant legacy, being the son of Mulayam Singh ji, and that alone is substantial,” Raj said.

Raj further argued that Adityanath did not possess a comparable legacy. He urged the Uttar Pradesh chief minister to reflect on his own position before commenting on Yadav.
