Aurangzeb’s soul has crept into Congress, Yogi Adityanath

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Saturday took a dig at the Congress over its alleged proposal to introduce inheritance tax, saying that Mughal emperor Aurangzeb’s soul has crept into the grand old party.

He likened the inheritance tax to the ‘jizya’ tax imposed by



Aurangzeb on non-Muslim citizens.

Addressing a rally in Malegaon town of Maharashtra’s Nashik district to canvass votes for BJP’s Dhule candidate and former Union minister Suresh Bhamre, Adityanath said his party was contesting elections not merely for power but to build a developed India.
