Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath issued a statement to the press on Sunday accusing the Opposition of engaging in a conspiracy over the Hathras case. “Those people who are not liking development, they want to incite a communal and caste riot,” the UP CM said.
While referring to the Opposition, Yogi Adityanath went on to add, “They will get an opportunity to bake their political breads in the garb of these riots that is why they ever indulge in new conspiracies. While being completely aware of these conspiracies, we have to expedite the process of development.”
