BJP spokesperson Rakesh Tripathi says that Dhirendra Krishna Shastri is just an excuse, Akhilesh Yadav’s real purpose is to hurt the feelings of Sanatan Dharma. Tripathi alleged that Akhilesh Yadav wants to polarize communities on the basis of religious appeasement. He is deliberately insulting the saints and spiritual speakers from all over the country on the pretext of Dhirendra Krishna Shastri. He believes that such insult leads to religious polarization and community mobilization. That is why Akhilesh Yadav and his party leaders sometimes comment about the scriptures, sometimes saints speak about saints, sometimes comments on saffron, sometimes make rhetoric about caste and sometimes accuse the narrators.
