"Every 🌜person's role is different at different times. It is not necessary that one 𒈔person should always be in the government, sometimes he can also do the work of the organisation,” he said.

The CM said📖 COVID-protocol will be followed to the hilt wheneve🍌r the dates for the election are announced.

The CM also took a swipe at Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav's promise of g📖iving 300 free units of electricity to domestic consumers upon coming to power, saying that people of the state know “only fiv🐎e districts used to get power supply before 2017”.

Earlier in the day, the SP chief while wishing the people a hಞappy New Year, made the announcement tweeting in Hindi.

"2022 will be a new year with new light for a new Uttar Pradesh. Three hund🍸red units of electricity for households (domestic consumers) will be given free and electricity for irrigation will be free," Akhilesh wrote.

On the Congress' promise of giving scooties to women upon coming to power, Adityanath asked how many scooties have been distributed in Punjab, Chha♓ttisgarh, and R♕ajasthan where the party has its government.
