Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, while campaigning for the Uttar Pradesh elections on Sunday, said that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) does not practise “politics of polarisation, but only of justice and humanity”.
“We do not want votes on the basis of caste, creed and religion. The Samajwadi Party (SP) is crossing all boundaries and doing the politics of polarisation. The SP wants to get votes by dividing society. They cross all limits to get votes of a particular religion,” Singh said, campaigning in Kasganj.
He also said people won’t believe the SP , with the party just keeping a red bundle in every press conference. “To establish credibility among people, you need to make sacrifices… to win trust. People will not believe you based on the red bundle,” Singh said.
He said the SP has to accept the fact that riots happen only during their tenure. “Why can no mai ka laal (nobody) dare to riot under the rule of the BJP? Our Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath ji has made a big contribution in improving the law and order situation here. Today, Vikas is doing 83 out of 84 asanas, but has left one asana headstand for the opposition,” Singh remarked.
