He also said, "There are leaders who are comparing Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel and Mohammad Ali Jinnah and taking their names in the same breath, stating that Jinnah and Patel together fought for the independence of India."
The UP CM added, "The two leaders cannot be compared. Patel united the country by annexing different princely-ruled states while Jinnah is a divider and formed a country on the basis of religion."
