Taking a jibe at Congress’ top leadership, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on April 30 called it a failed leadership. "The leadership of the Congress has completely failed and you must be seeing that their people are continuously leaving the field. At some places, their state president is resigning and at some places their declared candidates are themselves withdrawing their candidature and joining the BJP and at some places, they are deliberately filling out the nomination papers incompletely. The people of this country know the reality of the leaders of Congress, Samajwadi Party and INDI alliance and the people of this country will never allow their plans to be fulfilled,” said CM Yogi. “There cannot be a bigger lie than this. Everyone is very well aware of the history of Congress and other INDI alliance parties. The history of Congress has been of strangulating the Constitution made by Babasaheb Ambedkar. The Constitution of the country came into force in 1950 and Congress has continuously trampled on the freedom of expression, it has continuously made efforts to change the Constitution in its own way. The people of the country have not forgotten the Emergency,” he added.

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath criticized Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for his recent remarks about Indian heritage, particularly on Raja and Maharaja, stating that "accidental Hindus" like Gandhi cannot appreciate the rich traditions of India. He noted that people who are unfamiliar with the country's history and geography often make irrelevant statements. Reflecting on Gandhi's comments, Yogi Adityanath recalled that Gandhi once described himself as an "accidental Hindu." The Chief Minister emphasized that India has a diverse and vibrant heritage, with contributions from sages, Maharajas, and various segments of society. He also pointed out that Rahul Gandhi has seemingly overlooked the atrocities committed by the Mughals in their attempts to Islamize India. According to Yogi Adityanath, it's unfortunate that those who refer to themselves as "accidental Hindus" struggle to take pride in India's rich cultural legacy.
