LucknowSwami Prasad Maurya, the national general secretary of the Samajwadi Party (SP), who has created a political row over the Hindu epic Ramcharitmanas, has now challenged Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath to register an FIR against the saints who declared a reward for “cutting off my tongue”. did. nose, head, throat”.
He challenged Yogi Adityanath to file an FIR against Rashtriya Swayamsevak (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat for his statement at an event in Mumbai on Sunday in which he said that God has created equal for all people and caste and creed There are differences based on Sects were created by priests.
Against the backdrop of the political controversy initiated by Maurya, Bhagwat said, “To our creator, we are equal. There is no caste or sect. These differences were created by our priests, which was wrong.” Ramcharitmanas was derogatory to backward classes, dalits and women.
Maurya had demanded that either those parts be removed or the entire Ramcharitmanas be banned. Maurya said, “RSS chief Bhagwat said that the caste system is the gift of priests. By saying this, the RSS chief has exposed all those people who are abusing backward, dalits, tribals and women in the name of religion.”
He further said, “Initiative should be taken to amend the objectionable portions in Ramcharitmanas and all such books, (besides) the syllabus where discriminatory words and expressions against any caste or women are used. To prevent any problem The time has come to take corrective steps.” I request that if Hindu religion is to be protected, then the religious leaders should come forward and eradicate the evils.
Maurya also said, “Without using derogatory words against anyone, I only sought to correct some sections of the Ramcharitmanas and the religious leaders started announcing bounties for cutting off my tongue, ear, nose, throat, head. Simply because I was born in.” The fourth varna Shudra, you ordered. Now, can they issue such a reward on the RSS chief’s tongue, nose and throat?
Regarding the FIR against him and some others on the Ramcharitmanas issue, Maurya said, “Our chief minister is fond of getting FIRs done. Now, the RSS chief also (commented) in line with what I was saying, so Let them go.” An FIR has also been lodged against the RSS chief.”
Maurya said, ‘Our Prime Minister had said on several occasions that he had to face discrimination for being born in a backward caste. Imagine if the Prime Minister, who became the PM for the second time and was the Chief Minister of Gujarat for four times, says that he had faced discrimination, then what all the people and women in the villages would be facing.
