CM Adityanath wants to explore the possibility of converting nitrogen to oxygen.

It's so simple, just give two bags of rice to nitrogen & it'll convert with the whole periodic table.

Why stop at nitrogen? Why not convert all elements into oxygen?!

What an embarrassment, this uneducated lot! https://t.co/BrA6kJTahk

Big breaking

From today nitrogen will be renamed as oxygen

No need of scientists for working on conversion of nitrogen to oxygen

That's almost easy
Nitrogen atomic number = 7
Oxygen atomic number = 8
Just adding one proton and Nitrogen becomes Oxygen
How on earth not a single scientists was able to think of it
