Attacking the ruling SP and the main opposition BSP in the state, who provide outside support to Congress-led government at the Centre, Modi described them as a “troika” which has “eclipsed” the holy confluence of Ganga, Yamuna and Saraswati.
“Uttar Pradesh wants to break free from this eclipse to restore its pristine glory,” he said.
Similarly, the people of Uttar Pradesh should take the lead in dislodging the troika from Delhi, he said, citing the call from this historic city for driving out the British.
