Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath was widely called insensitive for his decision to spend time in Karnataka addressing election rallies at a time nearly 90 people were killed in rain and storm in his own state.
Even Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah took a potshot at Adityanath for his insensitivity when the former posted a tweet addressing the people of Uttar Pradesh. Siddaramaiah wrote, “At least 64 people have lost their lives due to a storm in Uttar Pradesh. My heartfelt condolences to the families who have lost their loved ones. I am sorry your CM is needed here in Karnataka. I am sure he will return soon & attend to his work there.”
On Sunday ABP News devoted a special programme to debate if it was acceptable for a state’s chief minister to leave his population in distress to help his party secure votes in a faraway state. Plugging his programme, journalist Abhisar Sharma tweeted, “Come back to Uttar Pradesh from Karnataka Yogi Adityanath… No one will blame you… Starting 10 AM, the biggest coverage on ABP News. The state affected by storm, deaths, unrest in Aligarh Muslim University. #AMU #Toofan.”

Adityanath’s official Twitter handle immediately reacted to Abhisar’s tweet and clarified that the state government had taken adequate measures to provide relief to affected population. The tweet also added that the concerned ministers were visiting the affected regions.
24 घंटे के भीतर ही प्रभावित जनपदों में जनहानि के मामले में राहत सहायता 95.89 प्रतिशत वितरित कर दी गयी। सभी प्रभावितों की हर संभव मदद की जा रही है। प्रभारी मंत्री भी प्रभावित इलाकों का दौरा कर रहे हैं। https://t.co/zXrnncBPXy

While replying to Adityanath’s office, Abhisar also taunted why the UP Chief Minister’s official Twitter handle had deleted a tweet lecturing the journalist to do ‘his homework.’ He wrote, “Too right Yogi ji. We too had shown this. But, this is also necessary to ask whether the chief minister’s presence in the state is not important at the time of a tragedy. We have many similar examples from the past too.”
बिल्कुल योगी जी हमने ये भी दिखाया था, मगर ये पूछना भी ज़रूरी है के राज्य मे ऐसी आपदा के वक़्त क्या सीएम का होना ज़रूरी नहीं? पहले भी ऐसी मिसालें हैं सर https://t.co/ERGYYGD1Rc

योगी जी मुझे होमवर्क करने की नसीहत देने वाले इस ट्वीट को डिलीट क्यों कर दिया आपने? मैं तो सिर्फ ये पूछ रहा था के आपदा मे सीएम का राज्य मे होना सही नहीं है क्या?
