PM Modi coins new slogan for 2022 polls, ‘UP+Yogi Bahut hai upayogi (UPYOGI)’
PM said that the people of UP are saying, "UP plus Yogi bahut hai upyogi" (Uttar Pradesh plus Yogi have great utility) as Yogi Adityanath has "eliminated" mafias and took up development work.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday laid the foundation stone of the 594-km Ganga Expressway in Uttar Pradesh’s Shahjahanpur district. Addressing a rally after laying the foundation stone, the PM heaped praises on Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, and said that under the CM’s rule, the people are saying, “UP plus Yogi bahut hai upyogi” (Uttar Pradesh plus Yogi have great utility)”.
The PM, during his speech, said that poor law and order triggered an exodus of people from Uttar Pradesh earlier, but during the past 4.5 years bulldozers have razed unauthorized properties of mafias, causing pain to those patronizing them. Praising the CM for ‘eliminating’ mafias and taking up development work, he further said that the people are saying “UP plus Yogi bahut hai upyogi”.
