Terrorist attack main shikar hua Hindu Shubham Dwivedi ke ghar jaane main kyu khatam hogai bhavnai? Faraq hai saaf shayad, Terrorist se rishta hain khaas, Hinduo se itni nafrat kyun? Pouchta hai Hindu samaj?”
On April 24, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath met the family of Shubham Dwivedi of Kanpur, who was one of the 26 innocent victims who lost their lives in the attack.
Expressing his condemnation, Adityanath termed the attack a cowardly act and emphasised that such incidents would not be tolerated in India.
