Karnataka polls: Yogi Adityanath gives Bengaluru a saffron dream, says ‘let Hanuman direct you’

Firstpost  

Yogi Adityanath, who is visiting Karnataka for the second time after the launch of BJP’s Parivartan Yatra, has become the face of the party’s election campaigning. “Hinduism is a lifeline and a rich tradition that cannot flow in the veins of those who justify killing cows and eat beef.” Thus began UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s address to a crowd of over 4,000 people in a packed outdoor venue at Vijayanagar in Bangalore on Sunday. Dressed in his usual saffron robes, Adityanath took a jibe at Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah’s remark in a speech on Saturday that he is a Hindu and “Hindutva is not BJP’s asset.” Adityanath broke into laughter, and said, “Seeing the power of Hinduism and our power, others have been forced to declare the same.” He had previously addressed a crowd at Hubballi on 20 December, which also saw state BJP chief BS Yeddyurappa raking up the Mahadayi river dispute. Prakash Javadekar also took potshots at the current chief minister by making the crowd chant - “Smart PM - Modi, slow-mo CM - Siddaramaiah.” Yeddyurappa, on the other hand, compared politicians to car gears. Congress does want to divide us on caste, but the BJP wants to bring us all together like the Hindus we are.” While the UP chief minister said he had a connection with Karnataka as it was the birthplace of Hanuman, “who helped Lord Ram find Sita and directed him in the right way”, he had a special message for Karnataka: “Let Hanuman direct you too to walk in the right direction.
