After Cop Killing, Yogi Adityanath's Sound-And-Light, Kabaddi Interludes

Hours after a police officer was killed by a mob that went rabid over cow slaughter rumours in Uttar Pradesh's Bulandshahr, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath flew down to Gorakhpur for a sound-and-light show. He flew straight from Rajasthan - where he was campaigning for the BJP - to his home-town. Images showed the Chief Minister with his Chhattisgarh counterpart Raman Singh at the Gorakhnath temple - where Yogi Adityanath remains head priest - for the show based on a Hindu saint. This morning, as the incident snowballed, Yogi Adityanath announced compensation for the officer's family. Then he went on to attend a kabaddi event, also in Gorakhpur.
