After the Nupur Sharma episode, the central leadership of BJP is compelled to drink buttermilk by burning it. Until recently, the central leadership, which ignored speaking anything against a particular community, clearly indicated that the provincial leaders and spokespersons should keep their tongues shut on the sensitive issue. If you want to talk, then follow the slogan of ‘Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas’.
A leader of Madhya Pradesh says that PM Modi himself has said that the party leaders should not do any such work which derails the agenda of the government or the government or the party has to be on the defensive among the people. He says that BJP is moving ahead with the slogan of Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas and Vishwas. That is, winning the trust of all the people of the country. In such a situation, any controversial statement can embarrass the party. He says that the government is doing all such things on which it can be spoken openly. Unnecessarily targeting Muslims will do nothing. We are supported by their women.
VD Sharma (MP President) says that BJP is not against Muslims. When he was in the Sangh, many Muslims used to come there. We used to chant Bharat Mata Ki Jai together. Another senior leader says that all of us have been told to shun divisive politics. One has to refrain from speaking anything on communal issues. It can spoil us. BJP spokesperson Hitesh Vajpayee says that we should avoid such issues. Development should be our agenda.
Apart from MP, many other states are on this path. It has been decided in Karnataka that no leader will speak or participate in any TV debate on Nupur Sharma issue. The entire government including PM Modi is hurt by this matter. Same is the case with UP BJP. After the Kanpur violence, all the leaders were given strict instructions not to talk about it. He says that such cases create unnecessary debate.
