Dec 27, 2021
New Delhi [India], December 27 : Imposing curfew in the night and calling lakhs of people in rallies during the day - this is beyond the understanding of common people, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Pilibhit MP Varun Gandhi said while slamming Uttar Pradesh government on Monday.
"Imposing curfew in the night and calling lakhs of people in rallies during the day - this is beyond the understanding of the common man. Given Uttar Pradesh's limited healthcare systems, we have to honestly decide whether our priority is to stop the spread of the dreaded Omicron or show electoral power," he tweeted.
Meanwhile, In the run-up to the Uttar Pradesh Assembly polls next year, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) set to take out 'Jan Vishwas Yatra' from six places in the state.
The six Yatras were inaugurated by the BJP's top leaders including Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and other union ministers from Bijnor, Mathura, Jhansi, Ghazipur, Ambedkar Nagar, and Ballia.
