CM Yogi Adityanath slams SP: ‘Turned education sector into cheating hub’

Calling the SP “Kaurav Dal,” the CM went on to say that SP intends to teach children “Ga se gadha” instead of “ga se Ganpati.”

He said that those who earlier “came to power through appeasement politics now find themselves politically irrelevant — neither connected to society nor concerned about future generations.”

The CM said, “Power was once treated as a platform for appeasement, turning education into a hub of cheating, chaos, and caste politics.” He added, “Today, those same people are suddenly concerned about public satisfaction.”

Adityanath also questioned SP leaders’ claims about “PDA”, citing that party’s “poor track record” in the education sector. He claimed that during the late Kalyan Singh’s government, when students were taught “ga se Ganesha”, SP leaders objected to this and demanded that it be changed to “ga se gadha”. “This reflects their mindset,” said the CM, pointing out that while the BJP seeks to instill Indian culture and values in children, “SP leaders had no qualms about insulting deities such as Lord Ganesha.”

Adityanath said, “When they were in power, timely recruitment of teachers was not done nor were any serious efforts to improve educational standards. The entire administrative and academic ecosystem was crippled by nepotism and caste-based politics in the past.”

He also said that earlier, criminal elements operated with impunity in almost every district, dragging the state into an era of anarchy and communal unrest. “For them, mass cheating was a right, not a crime. They gambled with the future of our youths through systematic exam fraud,” he added.

Dedicating the new school to the children of labourers’ families in the Moradabad division, Adityanath described it as a “temple of education” established in the memory of former PM Atal Bihari Vajpayee, during his birth centenary year.

Till date, 18 Atal Residential Schools have been established across Uttar Pradesh, providing free, high-quality education to over 18,000 children of labourers and orphans.

Attempts to defame Kanwar Yatra foiled by society’s awareness, alert admin: CM

Lucknow: Calling the Kanwar Yatra a “symbol of unity”, Adityanath on Wednesday hit out at opposition parties for doing “politics of appeasement”, pointing out that certain anti-social elements had conspired to tarnish the image of the Kanwar Yatra but “such attempts failed due to proactive administrative efforts as well as the alertness and awareness of the society.”

He was addressing a gathering during his visit to Bareilly, where he inaugurated and laid the foundation stone for 545 development projects worth Rs 2,264 crore.

The CM said, “Some individuals had tried to insult public sentiments and defame the Kanwar Yatra, but the alertness of society and the state’s strong law-and-order machinery foiled such efforts.”

“The BJP government is committed to blending heritage with development. Bareilly, which in the past saw frequent communal riots before 2017, is now gaining fame for the Nath Corridor and spiritual tourism,” he added. ENS
