OPINION | On Hindutva, riots: Yogi at his vintage best

Share
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Monday did not mince words in the Assembly, when he  said, ” Chanting of ‘Jai Sri Ram’  is neither communal, nor provocative, but a symbol of faith.” He said, “People in India often greet each other with ‘Ram Ram’, and even during the funeral procession, ‘Ram Naam Satya Hai’ is chanted. Nothing can happen in India without Ram. Then how can you (opposition) call ‘Jai Sri Ram’ slogan communal?”
