Editorji Exclusive: Bhupesh Baghel interview on UP polls, Rahul Gandhi and Yogi Adityanath

Chhattisgarh chief minister and Congress observer for UP Bhupesh Baghel has claimed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Amit Shah are trying to finish UP chief minister Yogi Adityanath.

In a exclusive interview with Editorji, Baghel claimed that it's clear that Yogi threatens Amit Shah's Number 2 position in the current BJP after PM Modi and hence there is a plan in the BJP to sideline Yogi.

Baghel also claimed that Congress leader Rahul Gandhi was the first one to salute the surgical strikes.

Countering BJP's allegations that Rahul Gandhi demanded proof of surgical strikes, Baghel, in a exclusive interview with Editorji, said that Rahul Gandhi never questioned the surgical strikes and the BJP has been using Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal's remarks to attack Rahul Gandhi.
