Akhilesh Yadav calls Adityanath an ʼinfiltrator,ʼ says UP CM should be sent back to Uttarakhand
Lucknow: Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav on Sunday launched a sharp attack on Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Adityanath, calling him an “infiltrator” and suggesting that he should be “sent back” to his home state of Uttarakhand.
Speaking to reporters at Lohia Park in Lucknow on the death anniversary of socialist leader Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia, Yadav said, “People who are giving the statistics of exodus… we also have infiltrators in Uttar Pradesh. The Chief Minister is from Uttarakhand. We want him to be sent to Uttarakhand. He is not only an infiltrator by origin but also ideologically.”
Taking aim at the BJP, Yadav alleged that the party’s claims and data could not be trusted. “If one is to believe their statistics, they would be lost,” he said, further questioning Adityanath’s political background. “He was not a member of the BJP; he belonged to another party. So, when will these infiltrators be removed?”
Yadav’s remarks came shortly after Union Home Minister Amit Shah accused some political parties of using “infiltrators” as a vote bank and questioned why infiltration does not occur along the Gujarat and Rajasthan borders.
Reacting to Yadav’s comments, Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak told PTI that he would issue a detailed response soon.
During the same event, Yadav paid tribute to Dr. Lohia, pledging to uphold his ideals. “Today, we take a pledge to reach out to the people on the issues he raised—to make them aware and ensure economic and social dignity for everyone by walking on the path he showed. Dr. Lohia had called for the caste system to be abolished,” he said.
Commenting on the alleged gang-rape of a student in Lucknow, Yadav accused the BJP government of failing to ensure women’s safety. “This isn’t the first such case under this government. Rape cases and atrocities against women are rising because the police are being used for political purposes. The BJP is not allowing the police to do their jobs. An encounter cannot be the solution,” he added.

UP: Teen girl found hanging from tree; locals claim rape, murder
Pratapgarh (UP) (PTI): The body of a 19-year-old woman was found hanging from a tree in a village under the Manikpur police station area here on Sunday morning, police said.
According to the police, the woman had gone to sleep after dinner on Saturday night but was found hanging in an orchard nearly 400 metres away from her home the following morning.
Additional Superintendent of Police (West), Brijnandan Rai, stated that the circumstances suggest foul play.
"The victim's slippers and undergarments were recovered 50 metres away from the spot where the body was found. There are visible injury marks on her body," Rai said.
While locals have alleged that the woman was murdered after being raped, the ASP said that it is "prima facie a case of murder."
"Based on the complaint filed by the victim's brother, a case of murder has been registered against unidentified persons. The body has been sent for a post-mortem examination," the officer added.
Police further clarified that if the medical report confirms sexual assault, relevant sections will be added to the FIR.
Forensic experts and police teams have collected evidence from the spot and are investigating the matter from all angles.
