The excavations in Sambhal have led to tensions, with reports of violence during an Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) examination of a Mughal-era mosque, resulting in several arrests. Yadav’s comments appear to be a critique of the state’s focus on excavation activities, suggesting that similar efforts should be made at the Chief Minister’s residence if such practices are to be pursued.
As of now, there has been no official response from Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath or the BJP regarding Yadav’s claims. The statements have sparked discussions in political circles, highlighting the ongoing tensions between the Samajwadi Party and the ruling BJP in Uttar Pradesh.
