BJP leader and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath who is one of the key campaigners for the party in the upcoming Delhi assembly polls has in an interview to BBC made strong statements with regards to anti-CAA and NRC protesters in the capital.
When the interviewer said that Muslims participating in the anti-CAA protest at Shaheen Bagh belong to the families which decided not to go to a country (Pakistan) which was carved out on a religious basis during partition.
Yogi Adityanath in reply said that, “Inhone koi upkar nahin kiya. Inhone Bharat par koi upkar nahin kiya tha (They did no favour to India).”
He added that there should have been a protest against India’s partition and policies in India’s favour should be supported. At the same time he added that one needs to vehemently oppose those who are anti-India.
Ever since Yogi Adityanath began campaigning in Delhi, he has been making strong statements, including accusing the Arvind Kejriwal led AAP government of supporting the Shaheen Bagh protesters and feeding them Biryani.
