“If I.N.D.I alliance comes to power, the era of terrorism will revive” – CM Yogi

Lok Sabha 24 : Kannauj, Kanpur, Unnao – On the last day of campaigning for the third phase of elections on Saturday, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath addressed public meetings in Kannauj, Kanpur, and Unnao. During this, he appealed to voters to cast maximum votes for BJP candidates.

Taking a dig at SP’s chief Akhilesh Yadav, the Chief Minister said, “The I.N.D.I alliance couldn’t find a candidate here, yet they are contesting the election. They initially nominated one person, only to withdraw the candidacy later. Subsequently, another candidate was named, but withdrew as well. Even the third nominee declined to participate. When faced with the absence of contenders, the SP chief expressed his intention to personally serve.”

The Chief Minister urged the people to ensure victory for Subrat Pathak, Ramesh Awasthi, Sakshi Maharaj, and Devendra Singh ‘Bhole’ on all three seats, respectively.

In Kannauj, the Chief Minister appealed to the public to go door-to-door and tell people that we want ‘Ram devotees’ and not ‘Ramdrohis’. He said that when the SP had the opportunity, they were busy in spoiling the essence of Kannauj’s perfume. They used to invite rioters to the CM’s residence and glorified them, he added.  

He further mentioned that the BJP had promised to build the Ram Temple in Ayodhya, but when the Samajwadi Party was in power, it opened fire at Ram devotees. “During SP’s tenure, there was a terrorist attack in Ayodhya. These people used to withdraw cases against terrorists”, he stated.

“Congress jeopardized the nation’s security, while the SP compromised the security of Uttar Pradesh’s residents. Now, they seek to repeat this pattern together. While Congress aims to further its own enrichment and the SP’s Saifai family interests, the BJP is contesting the elections for the national welfare. Under the SP government, the state witnessed rampant hooliganism to the extent that daughters of the state felt compelled to seek refuge with relatives or in hostels,” Yogi remarked.

CM Yogi took a swipe at SP President Akhilesh Yadav, suggesting that his allegiance lies not with the Ram Temple, India, Ram devotees, or the common people, but with the mafia and those who oppose India.

During his visit to Kanpur, the Chief Minister urged voters to support Ramesh Awasthi. He warned that if the I.N.D.I alliance comes to power, the country will witness a resurgence of terrorism and Naxalism. He directed criticism at the Congress, accusing them of spreading fear about constitutional amendments and being the first to undermine freedom of expression by amending the Indian Constitution.

He said that Kanpur has been blessed with the blessings of Mother Ganga, which has nurtured prosperity and entrepreneurship. Along with being the land of revolution, Kanpur is also the land of energy for the country’s development.

Attacking the opposition, CM Yogi said that the I.N.DI alliance is losing its credibility due to negative politics. “They are more concerned about Pakistan’s interests. Instead of addressing the issues of terrorism and Naxalism, they are keen on withdrawing cases against terrorists. They worked towards preventing the construction of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya at all costs”, he stated.  

“Before 2014, innocent people and soldiers used to be martyred in terrorist attacks in the country. Now, this cannot happen because the Modi government has struck at the core of terrorism,” Yogi added.

In Unnao, CM Yogi said that the politics of Ram devotees is for the nation, while the politics of Ramdrohis is for their families. Ramdrohis think of nothing beyond their family. “The Samajwadi Party has given tickets to its own family members. Currently, they are contesting on five seats. Their children and grandchildren will also contest elections. They suck the blood of the public.” 

Contrary to this, he said that when politics is for the nation then the country is respected in the world. “Congress’ intellectuals say that Ram temple should not have been built inside the country. Samajwadi Party says Ram temple is useless. Can they say the same for any mosque?”

“No, they cannot because they do not have the courage. Those who point fingers at the Ram temple are Radrohis. Today, festivals like Deepotsav in Ayodhya, Rangotsav in Mathura-Vrindavan, and Dev Deepawali in Kashi are being celebrated with great pomp and show,” Yogi said.
