New Delhi: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Sunday said the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has put an end to the politics of appeasement, a time when those who chanted ‘Abba Jaan’ used to digest ration for the poor.
Adityanath’s remarks also seem to be aimed at his predecessor and Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav.
“There is no place for the politics of appeasement led by PM Modi… Before 2017 did everyone get ration? Only those who used to say ‘Abba Jaan’ were digesting the rations,” he said. Said at an event in Kushinagar, reported ANI.
“At that time, the ration used to reach Nepal or Bangladesh. But today if there is any corruption in the distribution of food grains, then the guilty are sent to jail.
With all eyes on the Uttar Pradesh assembly elections next year, Adityanath further said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has changed the political agenda in the country.
Meanwhile, former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister and National Conference leader Omar Abdullah took a dig at the BJP over Adityanath’s remarks that the saffron party has no way of fighting any election with an agenda other than “wild communalism” and hatred. Not intended. towards Muslims”.
