Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath Tuesday said the SP-BSP alliance will create "anarchy" in the state and will be short-lived.

"This alliance will promote anarchy and insecurity only. It was done due to the fear (of the BJP government returning to power) and the people will not accept it," the chief minister said here.

He was talking to reporters after offering 'khichdi' at Baba Gorakhnath at Gorakhnath temple.

Reacting to SP MLA Hariom Yadav's statement that the SP-BSP alliance would survive only as long as SP president Akhilesh Yadav bowed to the wishes of BSP supremo Mayawati, Adityanath said, "I am sure this alliance will not last long."
Asked if the government has invited SP and BSP chiefs to Kumbh, Adityanath said, "Kumbh is for all and we invited all."
