"UP doesn't need an adopted son to do good for the state, Rahul Gandhi and Akhilesh Yadav are two sons of UP," said Priyanka Gandhi, in a short speech in Rae Bareli, her mother and Congress President Sonia Gandhi's parliamentary constituency. It was in response to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who said at an election rally yesterday that he is the "adopted son of UP," drawing parallels with Lord Krishna.
