Bharartiya Janata Party MP from Gorakhpur, Yogi Adityanath is once again in the news for his controversial statement.On Friday. the Yogi stressed that he would not let JNU or any other university to produce more Mohammad Ali Jinnahs in India and reiterated his tough stand on anti-nationals. The firebrand leader said this while talking to reporters in Gorakhpur on Saturday.
Referring to the charges made by Allahabad University students union chief Richa Singh and by JNU students union chief Kanihiya Kumar, Adityanath dismissed them as ‘confused people and their convoluted questions and ideology were indicators’.
When asked if the JNU was producing Jawahars or Jinnahs, Adityanath flatly said, “We will not allow the emergence of more Jinnahs in any educational institutions. If by chance, some one like surfaces, we will bury him. We will not tolerate anti-nationalist at any cost.”
Commenting on JNUSU chief Kanihiya Kumar, the MP said ,
“These people should analyse on what conditions was the bail given to him by the court. The bail is just an interim one.”
Adityanath clarified that the BJP has no vengeance against anyone and every individual has the same rights under the Constitution.
“But the rights of a person do not envisage that they were free to conspire or use derogatory words against the nation and honour the proven anti-nationals. It is really unfortunate that a handful of people were challenging the country’s unity and integrity,” emphasized Yogi Adityanath.
The BJP MP said that the JNU case has not ended and the probe was still on and the court will hear the bail plea after six months time once again. “let the probe come to an end, then you will get to know more detail about their illegal act,” he stated.
The Yogi did not spare the teachers of the JNU and alleged that it was unfortunate that the teachers of the JNU were also supporting the students involved in anti-national activities and utterings. When asked whether language used by Bollywood star Sharukh Khan and Kanihiya Kumar were similar, the Yogi cautined, “A person should be careful of what he speaks and one should respect every institution of the country.”
