new Delhi. The Bharatiya Janata Party has accused the Congress of insulting the people of Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Delhi from the electoral platform of Punjab. The BJP has also made it an issue in the Uttar Pradesh assembly elections. Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi was forced to explain when several BJP leaders and Union ministers opened up against the Congress and complained of distorting the statement.
In fact, during the election meeting in Ropar, Punjab, in the presence of Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi, Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi had said, “Punjabis unite… these brothers of UP, Bihar and Delhi who have come, don’t let them enter.” After this statement of the Chief Minister, the politics got heated. BJP termed this statement as divisive mindset.
What did the BJP leader say?
Union Minister Piyush Goyal, in the presence of Priyanka Gandhi, described the statement of Chief Minister Channi as the divisive thinking of Congress and said that I am a girl in UP, I can fight and go to Punjab and become the daughter-in-law of Punjab. Then talk of driving away the brothers of UP and Bihar.
Union Minister Anurag Thakur said, “From what mouth is Priyanka Gandhi seeking blessings from the people of Uttar Pradesh? Channi ji is making derogatory remarks on the people of UP, Bihar, and Priyanka Gandhi is applauding… Recognize properly, these are the same people who are questioning the integrity of India.
BJP IT cell head Amit Malviya said that the Chief Minister of Punjab humiliates the people of UP, Bihar from the stage and Priyanka Vadra is laughing, clapping while standing next to her. This is how Congress will develop UP and the country? Making people fight among themselves?
