PM Modi's leadership raising India's reputation across world: Yogi Adityanath

Aravalli: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Thursday rained praises on Prime Minister Narendra Modi by saying that PM Modi's leadership is increasing India's reputation at the global level.
Campaigning for the second phase of the Gujarat Assembly polls in Aravalli's district, BJP's star campaigner said that today is an important day as when voting for the first phase of Gujarat elections in 89 seats is underway, Prime Minister Narendra Modi became the Head of G20 countries. "It shows PM Modi's leadership is increasing India's reputation at the global level," he added. Addressing a public rally in Gujarat's Aravalli district, Yogi said, "These hills of Aravalli made the Mughal invaders bite the dust. Aravalli never learned to bow before the enemy."
Pitching for the double-engine government in Gujarat, Yogi Adityanath said that Gujarat was made riots-free after 2002.
"Gujarat was free from riots and curfew 20 years ago. And today under the leadership of Modi ji, India has become free from terrorism, and separatism," Uttar Pradesh CM said.

Yogi Adityanath also mentioned the special connection of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya with Gujarat, as the Rathyatra was kick-started from Gujarat joined by thousands of 'Karsevaks'.
Launching a scathing attack on BJP's rival parties of Aam Aadmi Party and Congress, Yogi urged the people to vote for the party that will ensure the security of the Country and increase India's popularity at the global level.
"Nor do they (AAP and Congress) respect your faith, and neither they can ensure the country's security, and cannot even increase the country's reputation at the global level. Then why should we choose them? People should not waste their vote in choosing them," Yogi Adityanath said.
