Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath criticised the Congress party and its allies on April 24, denouncing their alleged intentions and actions. In a recent address, CM Adityanath condemned the Congress party’s purported plans to conduct a survey of people’s property and redistribute it among themselves, likening these proposals to Taliban-like tactics. He warned against the imposition of authoritarian rule and forced redistribution.

Referring to past statements by former Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh, Chief Minister Adityanath expressed concerns over the reported assertion that Muslims have the first right on the country’s resources. He invoked former PM Manmohan Singh’s 2006 speech, highlighting the importance of addressing collective priorities and empowering minorities, especially the Muslim minority, for equitable development. Adityanath emphasised the need for equitable distribution of resources, raising questions about the implications for marginalised communities such as Dalits and backward classes.

Additionally, CM Yogi inaugurated the party’s media center at the UP BJP office, emphasising the importance of voters’ choices for their lives, security, and country, urging them to use their vote wisely.
जिन लोगों ने श्री अयोध्या जी में श्री राम जन्मभूमि पर हमला किया था, जिन लोगों ने काशी में संकट मोचन मंदिर पर हमला किया था, उन आतंकवादियों के मुकदमों को समाजवादी पार्टी ने वापस लेने का दुस्साहस किया था… pic.twitter.com/2EKAKG0eeC

Furthermore, CM Yogi criticised the Samajwadi Party, a key ally of the Congress, for its handling of cases related to acts of terrorism. He condemned the decision to withdraw cases against individuals involved in attacks on revered religious sites, including the Shri Ram Janmabhoomi in Ayodhya and the Sankat Mochan Mandir in Kashi, as compromising national security.
Rahul Gandhi’s recent remarks regarding the prospect of wealth redistribution have stirred controversy and drawn sharp criticism, particularly from Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Gandhi’s suggestion of conducting a “wealth survey” as part of a broader initiative to assess socio-economic disparities has been interpreted by many as a veiled agenda for wealth redistribution.
PM Modi, during an election rally in Chhattisgarh, vehemently opposed such measures, portraying them as detrimental to the hard-earned assets of the middle class. His condemnation reflects broader concerns over the potential ramifications of Congress’ economic policies, which Modi characterised as a form of continuous “plunder.” This exchange highlights the ideological divide between the BJP and Congress, with the former advocating for economic empowerment and wealth creation, while the latter faces scrutiny over its perceived agenda for wealth redistribution.
Moreover, Rahul Gandhi’s attempt to partially walk back from his initial stance, asserting that the proposed wealth survey is merely aimed at understanding socio-economic disparities, has not quelled concerns raised by PM Modi and others.
