On the question of giving first priority to Muslims in the country’s resources, BJP released an old video of 2009 on social media on Friday. In this video, the then Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh is shown saying in a press conference in Mumbai that minorities, especially poor Muslims, have the first right on the country’s resources. This press conference was held in April 2009 before the Lok Sabha elections to be held in the same year. Dr. Manmohan Singh is clearly saying in the press conference that he still holds the opinion that poor Muslims have the first right on the resources of the country. A day before this, Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge had written an open letter to the Prime Minister saying that he had made the allegations by twisting the words so as to create communal disharmony. In his letter, Kharge had written that by doing this you are reducing the dignity of your chair. On Friday, the Bharatiya Janata Party released a new video of Manmohan Singh and said that it exposes the lies and explanations of the Congress. This proves the truth of BJP’s allegation that it has become the policy of Congress to give priority to Muslims with special attention. This video is proof of Congress’s thinking that it wants to give priority to Muslims in all matters from reservation to resources.
This controversy has arisen at a time when crores of voters voted in 88 constituencies in the second phase on Friday. Modi said in the rallies of Uttar Pradesh that the pair of two princes who are roaming around these days are out to destroy the rights of the backward people. These people want to snatch the reservation of the backward people and give it to their special vote bank, but their intentions are being foiled. Modi is standing like a wall, that is why he is now being abused. Modi said that both of them want to take away the reservation rights of backward people and give it to their favourites, here their favorites meant Muslims. Modi said that the politics of appeasement has caused a lot of harm to the country but the people of Indi Alliance have decided that they will not reform, they will bring reservation policy on the basis of religion and will snatch away their rights from the backward people. Modi took the names of all the backward castes in the Agra rally, Kurmi, Maurya, Kushwaha, Yadav, Gurjar, Jat, Rajbhar, Teli and Pal. Directly addressed the people of these castes and said that everyone should be alert about the intentions of Congress and Samajwadi Party because the pair of two boys from UP are now betraying the backward people, Akhilesh Yadav is going to blame Yadavs to get the votes of Muslims. Are cheating.
It is true that Modi openly mentioned Muslims in his election rally, but in reality Modi used the word Muslim only in the rally in Rajasthan. After this, Modi is repeatedly saying that Congress wants to snatch the reservation from the backward classes and give it to its favorites and he is giving the example of Karnataka. Congress leaders cannot deny that Muslims are getting reservation in Karnataka, but Congress is clearly saying that Muslims have been getting reservation in Karnataka for thirty years, it is not on the basis of religion, poverty. Is based on. But the question is whether all Muslim castes are socially and economically backward, on the basis of social backwardness all Muslim castes were brought under the ambit of reservation, all Muslims are getting reservation, if it is not done on the basis of religion then what else? What is? Thirdly, if Congress wants to prove Modi’s point wrong then why doesn’t the Congress government of Karnataka announce that it will end the reservation for Muslims and the Congress government will not give reservation to Muslims in any state? Since Congress will not do this, Narendra Modi’s attacks will continue and Congress leaders will angrily abuse Modi, but Modi also made this mistake of Congress an issue in his favor. (Rajat Sharma)
