Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Tuesday took a jibe at the opposition's recently formed alliance I.N.D.I.A, saying that by using a different name, their "divisive and anti-India vision will not end".
कौआ अपना नाम हंस रख ले तो भी मोती नहीं चुगेगा।
अमावस्या की काली रात को पूर्णिमा का नाम देने से वह शीतल और प्रकाशवान नहीं हो जाएगी।
नाम बदलने से इनका मूल स्वभाव नहीं बदल जाएगा।
ऐसे ही I.N.D.I.A. नाम लगा लेने से आत्मा और संस्कार में रची-बसी विभाजनकारी सोच और भारत विरोधी दृष्टि…

Last week, 26 opposition parties formed a front -- Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (I.N.D.I.A) -- to unitedly take on the ruling BJP-led NDA at the Centre.
"If a crow names itself swan, it will not be able to pick the pearl. If the new moon is renamed full moon, it will not become full of light. Similarly, by using the name I.N.D.I.A, the divisive and anti-India vision will not end," Adityanath said in a tweet in Hindi
In another tweet in English, he said, "Changing your name will not change your game! It's INDIA Vs I.N.D.I.A."
