Speaking on Ayodhya, Yogi Adityanath, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister, said “Our government got the identity of Ayodhya back. I don’t go to Ayodhya for elections. I always go to Ayodhya out of faith, not politics”. Speaking on Mathura, he added, “If a mistake has been made somewhere in an outrageous way, then time will also rectify it. Every injustice has its retribution with time”.

Critiquing the performance of the government, former Chief Minister, Akhilesh Yadav said, “What is the condition of the health sector today, where are we in poverty and hunger, where do we stand in corruption? If anyone is eating the economy of our country, then it is China. We have to be careful with China in terms of economy and borders. BJP should tell where our manufacturing industry has reached and how much we are importing from China?."

Responding to the issue of Muslims being seen as a vote bank by political parties in the state, Asaduddin Owaisi, President, AIMIM said, “'I want to say that Muslims should vote for their future and not for just for making any party win. They need to vote after thinking.'”
