Speaking at the inauguration and foundation stone-laying ceremony of several development projects, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath stated that there are some people who live and eat in this country but refuse to say ‘Vande Mataram.’ Calling upon people to understand their mentality, he claimed that those who oppose ‘Vande Mataram’ are opposing ‘Bharat Mata.’ He added that those who obstruct the path of ‘Vande Mataram’ are the biggest obstacle to the nation’s unity. He urged people to recognize “those faces who stand first in line to claim government benefits but refuse to sing Vande Mataram.”
