Key themes from Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s campaign speech: “Their mayor says that half the population in Bengal will be made to speak Urdu. But in Bengal, Bengali will be spoken, and through Bengali culture, India will be united. One of their MLAs and one of their MPs say that ‘Kaaba is in their heart and Madina is in their eyes,’ but I want to tell them that Nadia will not accept this. Nadia’s call is that Mahakaali resides in our hearts and Chaitanya Mahaprabhu in our eyes, carrying the Vaishno tradition to every home. A worse situation existed in Uttar Pradesh before 2017, when cow slaughter took place and people were beaten and shot for saying ‘Ram.’ Today, Uttar Pradesh has a double engine government, and we will not allow cows to be slaughtered or Hindus to be divided.”
