Seeking the 'Nobel Prize' for the UP government in the field of literature and peace, he tweeted, "The foundation of a new Parliament House laid on the ruins of a liberal democracy." "UP government's creativity deserves two Nobel Prizes."

The Congress leader asked in another tweet, "UP is the most creative state in law making and application of law. Who else could have invented a crime called 'Love Jihad'?

Amitabh Kant's statement made headlines:

Chidambaram alleged that the state government led by Yogi Adityanath was misusing the new law. “UP is more constructive in the application of law. See three examples: a) FIR filed without any complaint; B) An FIR immediately becomes a non-bailable warrant and c) an arrest is made without an FIR.

A few days ago, NITI Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant had said that there is too much democracy in India, due to which it is difficult to implement reforms here.
