‘BJP Has Hate Calendar To Bring UP Until Polls’: Akhilesh Yadav On Gyanvapi Mosque Case
Yadav said fuel and food are getting expensive, adding the BJP doesn’t have an answer on inflation and unemployment.
New Delhi: Taking potshots at the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav has alleged the saffron party has a “hate calendar” to bring up issues like the Gyanvapi Mosque case until the elections as part of a deliberate strategy to avoid addressing issues of inflation and unemployment.
“Gyanvapi-like issues are being deliberately stirred up by the BJP itself or by their aides behind a veil,” he told the media in Uttar Pradesh’s Azamgarh earlier on Tuesday, ANI reported.
Yadav said fuel and food are getting expensive, adding the BJP doesn’t have an answer on inflation and unemployment.
“The BJP has a hate calendar to bring up such issues until elections,” he added.
Continuing his outburst, the former Uttar Pradesh chief minister said the BJP is selling the country’s property to “one businessman”.
“When we witness such debates, we don’t know what property of the country has been sold. The BJP gave a slogan of ‘One Nation, One Ration’, but it seems they are working for ‘One Nation, One Businessman’,” he added.
Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) supremo Mayawati also hit out at the BJP on the Gyanvapi Mosque matter and alleged the religious sentiments of people are being instigated under a conspiracy.
“Years after independence, the manner in which religious sentiments of people are being instigated under a conspiracy, under the pretext of Gyanvapi, Mathura, Taj Mahal and other places will not strengthen the country. BJP needs to take note of it,” she said in Lucknow, ANI reported.
Mayawati said religious places here are being targeted by the BJP and its associates to divert attention from unemployment, skyrocketing inflation and other issues.
“This is not hidden from anyone. This can affect the situation here at any time,” she added.
Earlier on Monday, the three-day-long court-monitored videography survey of the Kashi Vishwanath Temple-Gyanvapi Mosque complex in Varanasi concluded.
Sohan Lal Arya, the Hindu petitioner in the case, on Monday claimed that the committee found a Shivling at the complex.
Arya, who accompanied the court commission for the mosque survey, said that they have found “conclusive evidence”.
The Varanasi court after conclusion of the survey ordered District Magistrate Kaushal Raj Sharma “to seal the area where the Shivling was found and to bar people from going to the place”.
The court in its order said the District Magistrate, Police Commissioner and Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) Commandant of Varanasi will be responsible for the sealed area’s security.
