CM Yogi on Lalu Yadav’s comment

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath came down hard on Rashtriya Janata Dal chief Lalu Prasad Yadav for his comment that Muslims should have second thoughts. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Tuesday reiterated that Prime Minister Modi also said that the INDIA bloc parties will try to make a dent in the reservation of Dalits, STs and OBCs. “Prime Minister Modi also says that the INDI Alliance parties will try to make a dent in the reservations of Dalits, SCs and OBCs. When the Congress-led UPA government was in power, these people formed the Ranganath Mishra Committee and the Sachar The Ranganath Mishra Committee had said that out of 27 percent, 6 percent should be given to Muslims, which was opposed by the BJP at that time ” said CM Yogi.

“Then these people tried to make a dent in the sanctuary by forming the Sachar Committee. For this they tried to include some castes of Muslims into the Scheduled Castes and Tribal Castes, which we also opposed because Babasaheb Ambedkar was against reservations based on religion. he added. Earlier today, RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav spoke out in support of the Muslim quota and said they should be given the reservation.

Speaking to ANI, the former CM said, “Muslims should be given reservations (reservation toh milna chahiye Musalmano ko, pura’…).” His statement came after Home Minister Amit Shah, who addressed a rally in Bihar’s Ujiyarpur on Monday, alleged that the Congress had made reservations for Muslims by reducing the quota for SCs, STs and OBCs in Karnataka and Andhra.

The leaders of the Bharatiya Janata Party are aggressively raising the issue of Muslim reservations during their rallies. In an interview with Times Now, the Prime Minister said the country’s poor include all Hindus, Christians and Parsis and all of them should get the benefits of reservation.

“I have never said that Muslims will not get reservations. All I am saying is that religion cannot be the basis for providing reservations. The country’s poor include all Hindus, Christians and Parsis; everyone should get the benefits of reservation Dalits and tribals have been facing injustice for thousands of years, and there is a special reason that the makers of our Constitution made the right decision, and we are grateful for that. No political party is against this in Bihar’s Ujiyarpur on Monday, the Home Minister alleged that Congress had given reservations to Muslims by reducing quota for SCs, STs and OBCs in Karnataka and Andhra (ANI).
