Yogi Adityanath slams SP leader's comment on IAF wing commander Vyomika Singh: ‘Grave insult'
Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath slammed Samajwadi Party leader Ramgopal Yadav for alleging that Madhya Pradesh BJP minister Vijay Shah spared IAF wing commander Vyomika Singh from abuse as he did not know her caste. The SP leader was criticising the BJP minister for his derogatory comment on Indian Army colonel Sofiya Qureshi which drew widespread ire resulting in the registration of an FIR against Shah on the order of the Madhya Pradesh high court. The minister had apologised for his comment. Condemning the SP leader, Adityanath said that the armed forces' uniform is not seen through 'casteist' eyes as every soldier does 'Rashtradharma' (duty towards the nation) and is neither a representative of any caste nor of a religion. 'The Samajwadi Party's national general secretary's act of binding a brave daughter within the ambit of caste is not only a display of his party's narrow-mindedness but is also a grave insult to the valour of the army and the country's identity,' the chief minister wrote in Hindi on X. 'This is the same mentality which dares to divide even patriotism in the name of appeasement and vote bank politics. The public will once again respond to this distorted casteist thinking,' Adityanath added.

'These people (BJP) are taking out the Tiranga Yatra... They do everything only for elections. What is the need to take out the Tiranga Yatra? If there is a need then the whole country should be taken into confidence, all the political parties should be taken into confidence,' he said.

So all three were from PDA (Picchda, dalit, Alpsankhyak or Backwards, dalits and minorities). One was abused as she was a Muslim. The other was spared thinking that she was a Rajput... and there was no information (to them) about Bharti.' Meanwhile, visuals from ANI showed the SP party office in Lucknow sporting banners with words, 'Sofiya ka apmaan, desh ka apmaan hai. BJP desh se maafi maange (Insulting Sofia is an insult to the country. BJP should apologize to the country).'

SP to raise issues of ‘targeted social media campaigns' at all-party meet on Pahalgam attack
The Samajwadi Party (SP), which will participate in the all-party meeting called by the Centre over the Pahalgam attack on Thursday, will flag to the government the 'targeted social media campaigns' and 'attempts of political leaders on social media to spew venom in society'. SP principal general secretary and Rajya Sabha MP, Ramgopal Yadav will be the party's representative at the meeting. Speaking to reporters in Lucknow, SP chief Akhilesh Yadav said no party should look to reap political benefits from such incidents. 'It is the responsibility of the Centre to ensure fake news or those likely to pose a threat to the internal and border security of the country do not make the rounds on social media,' he said. Calling the government to take action against the perpetrators of the Pahalgam attack, Akhilesh said terrorists have no religion. 'Their purpose is only to create fear, stall the lives of people and create trouble for the country,' he said. Akhilesh also extended support to the decisions of the Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS) and said, 'More stringent decisions must be taken… and they need to be implemented strictly. It must not be merely a statement,' he said. In an apparent reference to the CCS' decision to put the Indus Water Treaty in abeyance, Akhilesh said, 'Do we have arrangements to stop the flow of water (to Pakistan)? It is a long process.'
