Accusing Samajwadi Party of indulging in divisive politics, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath equated it with the Muslim League, and said it was working on the same agenda of dividing society on communal lines.
Muslim League established in Aligarh in 1906. Along with other ‘actors’, the Muslim League was majorly responsible for India’s partition. The UP CM claimed the Samajwadi Party is doing the same work as the Muslim League.
“The Muslim League which laid the foundation of the partition of India in 1906 was established in Aligarh itself…Aligarh did not let them do so, but their intentions of dividing the society on a communal basis were successful…The same work that the Muslim League was doing at that time is now being done by the Samajwadi Party…their intentions should not be allowed to succeed,” the UP chief minister was quoted as saying.
CM Yogi also attacked the Congress and the Samajwadi Party, adding that during their rule in the state, daughters and businessmen weren’t safe.
He also emphasized that the BJP’s double-engine government has ensured development and security and cited the Ayodhya Ram Mandir as a prime example, which took nearly 500 years to become a reality.
“I want to ask Congress and the Samajwadi Party who always discriminated and looted the jobs meant to be provided to the youth. They used to loot poor people for their rights. Daughters and businessmen were not safe. It took 500 years to get Ayodhya Ram Mandir. Only BJP’s double-engine government could do it,” said CM Yogi.
The Chief Minister reiterated that the people need to remain united to remain safe.
“Earlier we had to face insult in Ayodhya because we got divided. We had to face insults in Mathura and Kashi because we got divided. Batenge toh katenge, Ek rahenge, safe rahenge (We will remain safe if we stay united). I guarantee you all on development and security,” he added.
Meanwhile, BJP MP Kangana Ranaut extended support for CM Yogi Adityanath’s slogan “Batenge to Katenge,” and called it a ‘call for unity.’
“This is a call for unity. We have been taught since childhood that unity is strength. If we are together, we are safe and if we get divided, we will be cut…Our party is a Sanatani party. Our party even wants to take PoK together and the opposition’s conspiracy to divide is being unsuccessful,” the actress said.
Uttar Pradesh will have by-polls on nine seats on November 20, and the results of the same will be declared on November 23.
