Lucknow, 4 November: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Friday, addressed three election rallies (Jawali, Jwalamukhi and Ghumarwim assembly constituencies) in Kangra and Bilaspur districts of Himachal Pradesh.
Canvassing for BJP?s candidate Sanjay Guleria in Jawali assembly seat of district Kangra, Yogi said, ?Our government has launched a campaign against the mafia in Uttar Pradesh. If a weak government under the Congress party comes to power in Himachal Pradesh, the mafia fleeing from UP would come here and vitiate the tranquility of the ‘devbhoomi’.?
?I am here to appeal to all of you that we need a government that acts swiftly and decisively on the issues of nationalism and development, and that only BJP can do,? he said.
?It was due to pragmatic and drastic step taken by Prime Minister Narendra Modi that India could combat deadly coronavirus. India made all-out efforts to save lives and livelihoods of people during the Covid-19 pandemic. Free tests, free treatment and free vaccines were made available to 135 crore Indians, while 80 crores got free ration,? he added.
Taking a dig at the Congress party, he said, ?Had it been the Congress government at the helm of affairs, they would have gulped everything themselves.?
In the last five years, Himachal Pradesh has witnessed new heights of infrastructure development under the leadership of Jai Ram Thakur, he said.
?Even during the regime of Prem Kumar Dhumal, several welfare schemes were implemented. Medical colleges, AIIMS were established in every district. Har Ghar Jal Yojana was implemented. Under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, everyone got the benefit of development without discrimination,? said UP chief minister.
Stating that the Modi government has paved the way for a grand Ram Temple in Ayodhya, Yogi said, Congress ruled the country for 55 years but the Ram Mandir was not built in Ayodhya because it was not their intention due to the politics of appeasement. All that mattered to them was their vote bank. The grand temple being built in Ayodhya is going to be the largest and the National Temple of India.
The abode of Baba Vishwanath in Kashi has been renovated. Visit Mathura-Vrindavan to see how magnificently the work has been completed. PM Modi has also inaugurated the Mahakal corridor. That is respect for our Indian heritage. The BJP government has always respected the faith of people, he added.
?Under the able leadership of Prime Minister, no enemy has the guts to raise an eye on India and if they do so, gallant youths of Himachal have enough potential to give them befitting reply, that?s the power of New India,? he said.
Hammering the Congress party, Yogi said, ?Out of 403 seats in Uttar Pradesh, Congress has won only two seats. When a person dies, at least four people are needed to give shoulder to the dead body. Congress was unable to secure 4 seats.?
Yogi addressed another election rally at Jwalamukhi in Kangra for BJP candidate Ravindra Singh ?Ravi?, where he said that Modi has made India the fifth largest economy of the world. New India is scaling new heights of development and prosperity under the leadership of PM. The status of India is day by day rising on the global stage.
Ridiculing Congress, Yogi said, ?India has entered the 5G era under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. When Congress was in power, there was a 2G scam.?
Stating that the Congress Party always worked for division of the country, Yogi said: ?Since 1952, during the time of Jana Sangh, a slogan was coined, ?Ek desh mein do Vidhan aur do Nishan nahi chalenge? (There cannot be two Constitutions, and two flags in one nation). Dr. Shyama Prasad Mookerjee sacrificed his life for the unity of the nation. The Congress inserted Article 370 in Kashmir, while Prime Minister Narendra Modi removed it at one stroke.?
Addressing a rally for BJP?s candidate Rajinder Garg in Ghumarwin assembly seat of district Bilaspur, Yogi said that terrorism has been eradicated from the nation and infrastructure development has reached new heights in the last eight years.
