National Conference leader Omar Abdullah on Thursday hit back at Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath after ther BJP leader asked the people to return the party to power or face the possibility of the state turning into a “Kashmir, Kerala or Bengal”.
“J&K has less poverty, better human development indices, less crime & generally better standards of living than U.P. What we lack is good governance over the last 3-4 years but that is a temporary phenomenon,” Mr. Abdullah tweeted.

He was reacting to Yogi Adityanath’s remark that he made in a six-minute video message on Twitter, on the eve of Thursday’s polling for the first phase of the assembly elections in Uttar Pradesh.
The chief minister said he was concerned that rioters, whose activities were curbed by his government, are now feeling uneasy. Terrorists are making threats, the firebrand BJP leader added.
“Be alert. If you miss this time, the five-year effort will be washed away. And it will take no time for UP to become Kashmir, Kerala or Bengal.” “This vote will be your guarantee to a life without fear,” Yogi Adityanath said in his appeal to voters.
