News Desk: Addressing a rally at Malda in West Bengal on Tuesday, Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath called the ruling TMC Ram Drohi and also claimed that the BJP will ban illegal slaughter houses, cow smuggling and love jihad within 24-hours if voted to power in Bengal.
Yogi said “Today, I am honoured to be here in the land of Jiva Goswami. Banerjee is doing appeasement politics in Bengal. Today, I would like to assure you that within 24 hours of forming a government in Bengal, we will ban illegal slaughter houses and we will act sternly against cases of love jihad and cow smuggling in the state. In Uttar Pradesh, we did the same thing”
He added “It is unfortunate that Mamata ji gets angry when she hears Jai Shree Ram slogan. Once upon a time, the same resentment was there against Lord Ram in Uttar Pradesh and we all know what happened there. Today, a Ram temple is coming up. I can feel that same thing is going to happen here in Bengal. The TMC indulges in appeasement politics. Banerjee’s initiative to restrict immersion of Durga Puja idols on Dashami to make way for Muharram processions not only exposed this, but also shows her low-level politics to stay in power. would like to tell her that there is nothing above Lord Ram. Maryada Purushottam Ram is everywhere. When we meet, we greet each other by saying ‘Ram-Ram’. During the last rites of our loved ones, we chant ‘Ram Naam Satya Hai. But Banerjee gets angry over Jai Sri Ram slogans. Those who don’t like Sri Ram, they should not stay in our country. During Eid festivals, cows were slaughtered forcibly, while curbs were imposed on Durga Puja celebration. This is not only unfortunate, but also shameful. West Bengal has always been a land of culture. It has been the land of revolution for India’s freedom struggle. It is unfortunate to see an environment of anarchy in Bengal. Therefore, BJP workers have come here to connect with our Bengali brothers and sisters and re-establish the identity of Bengal”
He also accused the TMC government of blocking people from getting the benefits of Ayushman Bharat and PM Kisan Samman Nidhi.
He also said “Dr Shyama Prasad Mukherjee had strongly opposed Article 370, which gives special status to Jammu and Kashmir. He died at Srinagar Jail after his arrest in Jammu and Kashmir (on June 23, 1953). We fulfilled his dream by scrapping the Article”
Around the same time, TMC MP from Basirhat Nusrat Jahan tweeted: “SHOCKING! Cannot find the words to describe the horror that @BJP4India ruled Uttar Pradesh has turned into! WHY couldn’t @myogiadityanath prioritize the safety & security of this family? Is Bengal elections more important to BJP? #BJPHataoBetiBachao”
Earlier, a video surfaced from the Hathras district of Uttar Pradesh that showed an alleged sexual harassment victim begging for justice. She alleged that her father was gunned down by her harasser for lodging a complaint with the police.
