Video | UP CM Yogi Adityanath takes a swipe at Rahul-Akhilesh partnership in Parliament

Yogi Adityanath on Tuesday spoke for the first time in Lok Sabha after taking charge as the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh. UP chief minister hailed Prime Minister Narendra Modi's policy of inclusive growth for turning the country's economy around.

He took a dig at Congress vice-president Rahul Gandhi and Samajwadi Party (SP) president Akhilesh Yadav. "I'm one year younger than Rahul ji and an year older than Akhilesh ji. The fact that I could come in between their partnership may be the reason for your (SP-Congress alliance) failure," Adityanath jibed.

He then said that his government in Uttar Pradesh will be for everyone, and not specifically for any caste or community. He said his constituency did not have a positive image in the minds of the people, when he was elected first time MP in 1998 but he had worked to change that.
