When Priyanka Gandhi launched a sharp attack on Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath of Uttar Pradesh over his comment of "revenge against demonstrators," the BJP, in effect, accused the General Secretary of the Congress of helping rioters. The state’s deputy chief minister Dinesh Sharma addressed a press conference soon after Priyanka Gandhi referred to Adityanath’s saffron clothes and asked him to follow Hinduism as there is no place for revenge and violence in that religion.
"Today she had forgotten that she is helping the rioters in the name of appeasing the minorities, citizens who pelted stones, destroyed public property, and rained bullets from which bullets and revolvers were confiscated," Dinesh Sharma told reporters.
