Congress, INDIA Bloc Used George Soros’s Money To Influence Lok Sabha Polls: Yogi Adityanath
Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath accused the Congress and INDIA bloc of using George Soros's money to influence the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has levelled serious allegations against the Congress and its allies in the INDIA bloc, claiming that they used billionaire George Soros’s money to influence the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. Adityanath asserted that foreign funds were involved in election propaganda, directly or indirectly benefiting the opposition alliance.
“They did propaganda, and not only did they spread propaganda, but foreign money was also involved in it. George Soros had long ago announced it… I am saying that foreign money was involved in the Lok Sabha elections throughout the country, in which Congress and other parties of the INDIA bloc were directly or indirectly involved, and through that, they tried to influence the elections. This falls in the category of treason,” he told news agency ANI.

The Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister also weighed in on the controversy surrounding stand-up artist Kunal Kamra, accusing certain individuals of misusing free speech to create divisions in the country. “The freedom of expression cannot be used to attack. It is unfortunate that some people considered the freedom of speech as their birthright to divide the country and further deepen divisions,” he said.
Targeting the Congress over the four per cent minority reservation quota introduced by the Karnataka government, Adityanath called it an “insult” to the Constitution drafted by Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar. “The reservation on the basis of religion by the Karnataka government is an insult to Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar’s Constitution. What all wrong did they not do to the Constitution in 1976?” he asked.
Responding to a question on his governance style, the Chief Minister defended his approach, saying, “This baton not only safeguards our sisters, daughters, and businessmen but also deals with the mafia and goons. This is not my ‘Dabang’ (fearless) style; this is my style of decency.”
