"Congress' manifesto is the document of the Muslim League. They want to impose Sharia law in the country and implement the Taliban system. If this happens, girls won't be able to go to school and women will be forced to stay indoors wearing burqas," he said.

He also accused the opposition parties of seeking to impose a tax similar to the Jizya tax.

Yogi Adityanath said those who follow the path of Mughal emperor Aurangzeb will be "permanently dealt" by his bulldozer, reported ANI.

The Uttar Pradesh chief minister claimed the leaders of the Congress party have been in mourning since the Ram temple in Ayodhya got constructed. He said the party's leaders claimed the temple was useless.

Yogi Adityanath said under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, India's respect has increased globally, and terrorism and Naxalism have been eradicated.

He said the Congress party-led INDIA bloc is just a facade. "If they cannot unite themselves, how will they unite the country?", he quipped.

"Congress says that if they come to power, they will give the rights of backward castes to Muslims. The UPA government formed Justice Ranganath Mishra and Sachar Committee to give OBC reservations to Muslims. We opposed this back then. Rahul Gandhi is talking about eradicating poverty in one stroke. His grandmother gave the slogan 'Garibi Hatao' in 1970, and now, 54 years later, her grandson is giving the same slogan," Yogi Adityanath added.

He said the bulldozer of Yogi Adityanath has been running vigorously against the rioters and mafia in Uttar Pradesh.

Polling for the Lok Sabha elections will conclude on June 1. Counting of votes will take place on June 4.
