UP CM Yogi Adityanath Criticizes Rahul Gandhi's Manusmriti Remarks Ahead of ElectionsPreviousNext

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath sharply criticized Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his remarks on the Manusmriti, accusing him of disparaging India's traditions, heritage, and democratic responsibilities. Speaking in Raebareli, Yogi questioned Gandhi's commitment as Leader of the Opposition and alleged that his comments could mislead youth and encourage anti-national elements. Gandhi had urged women to break free from the Manusmriti's constraints, prompting a political debate ahead of upcoming elections. The exchanges highlight tensions between BJP and Congress over cultural and political narratives.
