New Delhi: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister, Yogi Adityanath on Saturday, began campaigning for the BJP in the final week for the upcoming Delhi assembly elections. The UP CM hit out at those staging and supporting Shaheen Bagh protests against Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA).

Yogi Adityanath, addressing a large election rally in Rohini area of northwest Delhi, accused the protesters who were raising slogans of 'Azadi' of backing terrorists in Kashmir. The UP CM lashed out at Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) for "supplying biryani" to the Shaheen Bagh protesters.

Addressing another election rally in east Delhi in the Karawal Nagar Chowk area, Yogi Adityanath slammed the anti-CAA protesters. The BJP leader remarked that the ancestors of the protesters had divided India and that they bore a grudge against the growing might of India as a great power.
