Supporters of J&K ultras protesting at Shaheen Bagh: Yogi
Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath on Saturday alleged that the Arvind Kejriwal government supplies “biryani” to protesters at Shaheen Bagh.
Addressing a public meeting in the Rohini Assembly constituency in support of BJP candidate Vijender Gupta, Mr Adityanath further alleged that those who support terrorists in Kashmir are staging protest at Shaheen Bagh and raising slogans of “azadi.”
Earlier in the day, the UP chief minister, in a meeting in support of BJP Karawal Nagar and Mustafabad candidates Mohan Singh Bisht and Jagdish Pradhan respectively, alleged that AAP and Mr Kejriwal wanted protests like Shaheen Bagh.
“They (the AAP) don’t want good quality roads, water, or the expansion of the Metro; all they want is Shaheen Bagh. You have to decide whether you want all-round development or Shaheen Bagh. He will waste tax payers’ money in feeding biryani to protesters,” he said.
Referring to Pakistani minister Fawad Hussain Chaudhry’s tweet, Mr
Adityanath said: “When Kejriwal is not getting support from the people of Delhi, he is getting support from a minister from Pakistan.”
The firebrand BJP leader lashed out at antiCAA (Citizenship Amendment Act) protesters, saying their ancestors divided India so they have a grouse against the emerging “Ek Bharat, Shrestha Bharat.”
The UP chief minister appealed to the people to vote for BJP to show their disapproval for the ongoing anti-CAA protest at Shaheen Bagh. Mr Adityanath pointed out that Mr Kejriwal had not only failed to deliver on his promise of a corruption free administration, but his own ministers were facing corruption charges.
