Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Tuesday launched a scathing attack on Hemant Soren-led Jharkhand government, accusing it of "patronising" the mafia and urged people to vote for the BJP, which would "bulldoze" them.

In his address, the star campaigner of the BJP also accused the Congress of neglecting the poor and not implementing "any scheme for them".

Yogi Adityanath also accused Congress of "creating obstacles" to the construction of Ram Temple in Ayodhya.

"Ram Lala now sits in that temple after 500 years and Ram temple consecration has paved the way for Mathura and other temples," he said.

The BJP-led NDA is eyeing to return to power in Jharkhand, while the JMM-led INDIA bloc is working to get a second term in the tribal-dominated state.

The Jharkhand Assembly polls for 81 seats will be held in two phases -- November 13 and November 20. The counting of votes will be taken up on November 23.
