Adityanath Accuses Jharkhand Government of Threatening State's Stability

UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath claimed the JMM-led coalition in Jharkhand poses risks by allowing illegal immigrants. At a Dhanbad rally, he suggested the BJP is likely to secure victory following initial polling. Adityanath accused the coalition of attempting to establish a Naxal hub in the state.

In a fiery address on Thursday, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath alleged that the ruling JMM-led coalition in Jharkhand is compromising the state's stability by permitting Bangladeshi and Rohingya immigrants to settle illegally.

Speaking to a crowd in Dhanbad, Adityanath asserted that the first phase of elections, conducted on Tuesday, indicated a clear path for the BJP to form a government with a decisive majority in the state.

He further accused the coalition of transforming Jharkhand into a stronghold for Naxals and urged voters to support a 'double-engine' government to eradicate issues such as 'love jihad' and 'land jihad' similar to efforts in UP.
