Babaji under pressure due to fear of defeat: Yadav

Lucknow: Taking a jibe at Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Thursday said that the BJP leader is under a lot of “pressure” due to the fear of a historic defeat in the upcoming state assembly polls.

Akhilesh said, “When we told him ‘compressor’, he understood ‘low pressure’. Baba ji is misunderstanding... the truth is that he is under a lot of ‘pressure’ due to the fear of a historic defeat.” Yadav and Yogi Adityanath have been attacking each other with verbal metaphors ahead of the UP polls. Yadav is being referred to as “babua” in poll rallies of the ruling BJP while Chief Minister Yogi is being jabbed as “Babaji” by the SP president. (PTI)
