Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has launched a scathing attack on Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, accusing him of remaining silent on the Razakar attack that killed his mother and sister. Adityanath claims that Kharge’s silence is driven by his desire to retain Muslim votes ยน. The Razakars were a paramilitary force operating in the erstwhile princely state of Hyderabad, seeking to maintain the rule of the Muslim Nizams and prevent Hyderabad’s accession to India.
Adityanath’s counterattack comes after Kharge criticized him for his saffron attire and “Batenge to Katenge” slogan. The Uttar Pradesh CM alleged that Congress has a history of compromising with the Muslim League, resulting in the division of India and the killing of Hindus. He also warned against divisions within the nation, stating that disunity leads to unsafe conditions for daughters, temples, and communities.
