Bengaluru: Criticizing the statements made by Adithyanath Yogi regarding beef consumption, Karnataka’ S Chief Minister Siddaramaiah hits back at his rival Yogi Adithyanath for questioning others eating habits.

In his latest tweets Siddaramaiah mentioned, “Who is he to question others eating habits? Many Hindu’s consume beef. I don’t like eating beef so I don’t eat it. Even if I want to eat beef who is he to object?”

The above tweet was made in contrast to Yogi’s attack on Siddaramaiah for promoting beef eating habits among Hindus.

In another tweet Siddaramaiah said “I was brought up by a farmer. I grew up grazing and feeding cows. I have cleared cow dung. Has Yogi Adityanath who is over protective of cows done all that? On what moral right does he talk about cow protection?”

Yogi Adityanath while addressing the gathering at Bengaluru during the Parivarthana rally here on Sunday had criticized Siddaramaiah on his failure to eliminate cow slaughter in Karnataka.
