A picture of Uttar Pradesh Chief Minsiter Yogi Aditynath posing with a rifle, standing along Defense Minister Rajnath Singh has been taking rounds on the internet.
The background of this click happens to be the foundation laying ceremony of the BRAHMOS Manufacturing Centre, established by Defence Research & Development Organisation (DRDO) in Lucknow.
In the viral photo, UP CM is caught on camera keening aiming his eye at a point holding a rifle. The fun fact is that instead of the traditional way of holding the rifle against one's shoulder, Yogi chose to rest it on his facemask-covered mouth.
Take a look at the picture, right here:
To this pose, the netizens couldn't resist from reacting. A user took to witty comment and subtle concern over Yogi for using the rifle through his mouth, he wrote, "Yogi ji ko dentist k paas bhejna parega aise use kiya toh (Yogi ji might have to be sent to a dentist if he uses the rifle this way)". While another user was curious to know who was the shooter aiming at.
