'The Statue of Unity is wasteful expenditure, but engineering-wise they have chosen the right place and correct spot. It is a simple statue and well executed.''Here, the government has chosen a wrong spot. They have chosen a wrong design.''The Shivaji Maharaj statue is holding a sword and the length of that sword is 48 metres, which is equivalent to a 16-storey building!' |

Oppn trying to worsen atmosphere: Adityanath on price rise
|
26.5.2018 |
General News |
Attacking rival political parties, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath today said that "opposition is unnecessarily trying to worsen the atmosphere" over price rise.
Speaking to reporters, Aditynath said the fearful picture which the opposition is painting, actually does not exist.
"The Centre is alert as far as price rise is concerned. The prices of the essential commodities have been controlled. The opposition is unnecessarily trying to worsen the atmosphere," he said.
On a question about garlanding the statue of Chhtrapati Shivaji in Mumbai while allegedly wearing a khadau (wooden slippers), Adityanath said, "I know how garlanding of a statue has to be done. In this context, no one should advise me."
Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray had earlier accused Adityanath of garlanding the statue of Shivaji while wearing wooden slippers. |
