Varanasi/Mau. Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Jagat Prakash Nadda said on Monday that as long as Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP are there, reservation on the basis of religion will not be allowed to be implemented. BJP candidate from Varanasi Lok Sabha and who came here to campaign for Prime Minister Modi, Nadda, while talking to reporters after offering prayers at the Kaal Bhairav temple, said on a question asked about the opposition, “You will see what will be the condition of the opposition on June 4 (the date of announcement of Lok Sabha election results).”
Accusing the opposition of planning to give reservation on the basis of religion, he said, “It is clearly written in the constitution that there will be no reservation on the basis of religion and as long as Modi ji and the Bharatiya Janata Party are there, we will not allow reservation on the basis of religion. We will not let anyone rob the reservation of our Dalits, tribals, backward and extremely backward classes.” Nadda said, “Whenever I come to Varanasi, I visit the Kaal Bhairav Temple, Sankat Mochan and Kashi Vishwanath Temple. As we all know that Kashi is a religious city and a city that takes Sanatan forward. We get new energy from here.”
He said, “I have prayed for the welfare of the society, peace and happiness and for the strength of the development work started by the Narendra Modi government. Narendra Modi ji will become the Prime Minister for the third time with more than 400 seats.” Nadda will address several meetings in Varanasi today. Prime Minister Modi is contesting from Varanasi Lok Sabha seat for the third consecutive time. Voting for this seat will be held on June 1 in the seventh and last phase.
India alliance is plotting to imprison daughters and women in their homes: Adityanath
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Monday attacked the opposition alliance ‘Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance’ (‘India’) and alleged that this alliance is conspiring to imprison women and daughters in their homes by implementing Sharia law in the country.
Adityanath said in a public meeting organised in favour of BJP ally Suheldev Bharatiya Samaj Party candidate Arvind Rajbhar from Mau’s Ghosi Lok Sabha constituency, “There is a need to be cautious of the Indi (India) alliance, because it says that if it comes to power, it will impose inheritance tax. This tax of theirs is like Aurangzeb’s Jaziya tax.” According to him, the ‘Indi’ people say that if they come to power, they will implement personal law, that is, they want to implement Talibani and Sharia law in the country. The Chief Minister alleged that they are conspiring to imprison daughters and women in their homes, but they do not know that this country will run by Baba Saheb Bhimrao Ambedkar’s Constitution. He said, “We will not let the evil practice of triple talaq start again in the country.”
Adityanath said that the thinking of Congress and Samajwadi Party is negative and these people are against Lord Ram as well as the country. He said, “These people rob the rights of Dalits and backward classes. Now their eyes are on the reservation of OBC (other backward classes). They say that they will break into OBC reservation and give it to Muslims, but we will not let this happen. This is the right of the people of OBC caste and we will not let this right be snatched away.” He said that Baba Saheb Bhimrao Ambedkar had said that religion cannot be the basis of reservation. He alleged that the opposition parties want to divide the country once again on the basis of religion.
He said, “But the public has understood their intentions. That is why they say that we will bring back those who have brought Ram.”
