Akhilesh Yadav Criticizes Yogi Adityanath Over Insensitive Comments Amid Maha Kumbh Tragedy

Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav condemned Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath for derogatory remarks towards families searching for loved ones post-Maha Kumbh tragedy. Yadav accused BJP of mismanagement and criticized Adityanath's attack on socialism. He also highlighted intra-party conflicts and failures in economic governance, including rising costs and social division.

Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav has strongly criticized Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath for his recent comments amidst the ongoing fallout from the Maha Kumbh tragedy, labeling them as insensitive.

Yadav took issue with Adityanath's statement in the state assembly, where he implicitly insulted families still searching for missing relatives by referring to them as 'vultures.' The SP leader pointed out the irony, given initiatives to establish a vulture breeding center in Gorakhpur.

Further, Yadav accused the ruling BJP of mishandling the Maha Kumbh, leading to chaos and casualties. He also underscored tensions between state and central agencies over river pollution and criticized the government's economic strategy, including increased living costs and division in social harmony.
