Pulling out of J&K alliance is in favour of country says Yogi
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath termed the BJP's decision to pull out of the coalition government in Jammu and Kashmir as a step in favour of the state and the country.
"From the past three years, continuous efforts were being made to work for the people and according to their wishes. Today the BJP central leadership, after taking the deputy CM, ministers, MLAs and local leaders in confidence, pulled out of the BJP-PDP alliance," he said.
"I
think
the
BJP
has
taken
a
big
step
in
favour
of
the
country
and
J&K,"
he
told
reporters
here.
He
said
the
BJP-led
government
at
the
Centre
had
made
a
lot
of
effort
for
Jammu
and
Kashmir.
"A massive flood had hit J&K three years ago and Indian army's work there was remarkable. Prime Minister Modi went there and celebrated Diwali with soldiers, and the central government also provided a lot of help," he said.
The chief minister held a review meeting at the circuit house here with local officials and inspected the Ramgarh Lake.
He also hoisted a 100-foot tricolour installed near the gate of Deen Dayal Upadhyay Gorakhpur University by a voluntary organisation.
