CM Yogi targets Rahul Gandhi over remarks on Manusmriti, says he encourages anti-national elements

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Monday targeted Congress leader Rahul Gandhi over his remarks on Manusmriti. The Chief Minister said the country has few expectations of Rahul Gandhi. Recently, I was also reading a statement by Rahul Gandhi, the MP from Raebareli. He made a statement in Maharashtra, saying that women should break free from the shackles of Manusmriti and come out. As Rahul Gandhi, the country does not have many expectations of you. But as the Leader of the Opposition in the Parliament of India, the country expects you to be accountable to democracy. Do you consider it your birthright to criticise Indias traditions and heritage? he said at an event organised on the birth anniversary of freedom fighter Rana Beni Madhav Baksh Singh.
