Yogi Adityanath Urges Voters to Choose BJP for Development, Criticizes Congress and MVA
Nagpur, India: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, in a recent public rally at Awari Chowk, Reshimbagh, urged voters to support the BJP for what he described as the "double engine" government needed for Maharashtra's development. Adityanath’s speech was part of a campaign for BJP candidates Mohan Mate (Nagpur South) and Pravin Datke (Nagpur Central) ahead of the state Assembly elections. Prominent BJP leaders were present, including State President Chandrashekhar Bawankule, City President Bunty Kukde, Pravin Datke, and former MLC Ashok Mankar.
Adityanath accused the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) alliance of fostering divisions by using issues like "love jihad" and "land jihad" to stoke religious and caste-based conflicts. He criticized the Congress, claiming it has long neglected development in Maharashtra, and appealed to voters to reject the MVA, stating, "Congress has caused great harm to the state; voters should now hand over power to the Mahayuti’s double engine for all-round development."
Drawing from his own experience in Uttar Pradesh, Adityanath said his government had taken a strong stance against issues like "love jihad" and land mafias, promising a similar approach under a BJP-led government in Maharashtra. He praised Union Minister Nitin Gadkari for transforming infrastructure across India and Maharashtra, noting that Gadkari’s projects have gained national and international recognition.
Referring to Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, Adityanath claimed Kharge fails to address historical incidents involving Razakars—armed supporters of the Nizam of Hyderabad—who attacked villages, including Kharge’s own, where Hindu residents were reportedly targeted. "Despite his past, Kharge does not speak of the Razakars," Adityanath asserted, suggesting Kharge avoids the topic to maintain support among Muslim voters.
Adityanath further credited Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government with securing India’s borders, providing food aid to over 80 crore people for the past four-and-a-half years, and initiating development in Kashmir post-Article 370 abrogation. He also referenced the construction of the Ram Temple in Ayodhya as the fulfilment of a longstanding national aspiration. Adityanath cautioned voters against repeating "the mistakes of past elections" and urged them to remove leaders who incited violence during Hindu festivals.
The BJP rally in Nagpur underscored the party's focus on security, development, and economic growth, positioning the "double engine" BJP government as the pathway to a prosperous Maharashtra and India.
