New Delhi, May 7: Calling Indian National Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi a "Shehzadi", Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Tuesday accused the Congress leader of teaching abusive words to the innocent children of Amethi instead of teaching virtues. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader also said that Priyanka should "go and teach these abuses in Italy." Yogi Adityanath Triggers Yet Another Controversy, Says 'Earlier, People Got Electricity on Eid, But Not on Diwali'.

"Congress has completely failed, Shehzada also failed so they brought in their Shehzadi. She was teaching abuses to innocent children of Amethi, please and go teach these abuses in Italy," said UP CM during a poll rally in New Delhi's Mandawali area. Lok Sabha Elections 2019: Priyanka Gandhi Insulted Hindus in Ayodhya Trip, Says Yogi Adityanath.
