Twitter users mock CM Adityanath as he ‘runs behind’ Modi’s car after PM's convoy leaves him behind
Lucknow (UP): Twitter users on Tuesday had a field day after a viral video of Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath sent the internet into a split as he was left behind by PM Modi’s convoy. Adityanath had to walk behind Modi’s car to get to PM.
The incident took place when PM Modi arrived in Sultanpur to inaugurate the 341-KM long Purvanchal Highway. UP CM Adityanath had arrived to welcome the PM. “He had to run behind his car to get him,” Arrow News’ official handle captioned the video.
The video soon went viral across social media platforms and users took it to their advantage to have a field day. While a few users mocked Adityanath over the video and his state in the party, others claimed that he was purposefully sidelined by the Prime Minister.
Some of the users also opined that nobody can stand in line with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and that he has always sidelined people who pose threat to his stature.
While most of the tweets were funny and the video was used in light humor, former UP Chief Minister and Samajwadi Party supremo Akhilesh Yadav took a sly dig at the CM adding that PM Modi had stripped off Modi of the power before the people of the country could do so.
Akhilesh used lines from Hindi poetry to take a dig at the UP CM.

Ready to face no-confidence motion, says Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah
Hassan (Karnataka) (PTI): Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Saturday said that the Congress government led by him was ready to face the no-confidence motion if moved by the opposition during the legislature session from December 8.
With Deputy CM D K Shivakumar by his side, he reiterated that they would both abide by the high command's decision on the leadership issue.
"Let them (opposition) bring in a no-confidence motion or adjournment motion or any other motion. We are ready to face it. Ours is an open book, transparent government. We are ready to face anything," Siddaramaiah said in response to a question.
However, BJP state President B Y Vijayendra and Leader of Opposition in the Legislative Assembly R Ashoka, clarified that the party, along with the JD(S) has not discussed or decided anything so far regarding moving a no-confidence motion against the government.

The winter session of the Karnataka legislature will begin in Belagavi, bordering Maharashtra, on December 8 and will go on till 19th of this month.
Not wanting to react to a question on the leadership issue, the CM said the Congress high command is very strong.
"D K Shivakumar and I will be committed to whatever the high command decides," he said.
Earlier in the day in Bengaluru, Shivakumar accompanied AICC Mallikarjun Kharge till airport from Vidhana Soudha, after paying tributes to B R Ambedkar on his 69th death anniversary, which had led to some speculation about possible discussion between the two on the leadership issue.
The power tussle within the ruling party had intensified amid speculation about a change in chief minister in the state, after the Congress government reached the halfway mark of its five-year term on November 20.
However, both the CM and Deputy CM had recently held breakfast meetings at each others residences, on the instructions of the high command, which is seen as a move to pause the leadership tussle between the two and to signal Siddaramaiah's continuation as the CM for the time being, especially ahead of the Belagavi legislature session.
