So uhh yesterday I had a debate with one of my friends. We were talking about the exit polls and the elections. He's a bjp supporter, I am Congress supporter. I said that to the common man, it doesn't matter which party win, we're still gonna suffer cuz both parties are corrupt. He started saying that BJP isn't corrupt and it's doing so much good for our country. I called bs on this. Brought up Manipur, agniveer, unemployment in UP and MaHa and how the industries are being shifted to gujrat, how poverty increased, the farmer's protests, Kerala MLA's kid, Ramkrishna cafe attack, mujra and mangalsutra too. He didn't respond to any of these, said I've been fooled by the media, that the opposition is brainwashing me. He tried mansplaining too, saying how he wants to help me get better and be educated cuz I'm uneducated rn. How he wants me to be humbled. I also brought up hindutva, how I am deeply terrified of having to leave my country if hindu rashtra is established cuz I am a minority religion. He said I should be grateful that I get privileges (minority religions don't get privileges, castes do btw). He also stated that bjp is doing good for Indian brotherhood and oneness. The irony.

Just thought I'd share this here lmao. Avg bjp antics

[incorrectmahabharatquotes]

Genuinely curious, because you seem to hate the Ram Mandir... or how you think one party/ruling government is using it for political gain/votes or how it's wasting money etc.

What do you have to say about the Waqf board act? Or the infamous Shah Bano case and the way the Rajiv Gandhi government went against the decision of the Supreme Court to favour Muslim patriarchy. Or the fact that the Congress government banned books like the Satanic Verses to please a certain community. Is this not politics of appeasement?

You say that the ruling party is playing politics over religion, but hasn't every party done it? It's not like BJP was even hiding it, they've been campaigning for the Ram Mandir rebuilding for decades. It doesn't make it automatically a bad move.

Besides, Ram Mandir is built through devotee donations, so why so much vitriol against it? If Hindus are giving money to construct a temple, it's solely their own decision. I genuinely don't understand why there's so much hatred for it. If a community is reclaiming their holy land, which had been forcibly ruined and rebuilt into another type of building, it's not a bad thing. Plus, a big chunk of land was given to the Sunny Waqf board to build a beautiful mosque in Ayodhya itself, which has begun construction this year (iirc). Both communities will have their interests restored.

Why can't we move on and celebrate the Ram Mandir rebuilding and inauguration? Is decolonization and reclaiming of a place of cultural significance not important?

(I know that some people are being too aggressive about it, but the majority isn't. They're simply celebrating and praying. And some of them actually got attacked for it.)

Okay. Since you're genuinely curious, I'll answer this.

"Why am I criticising the current ruling party for playing politics of appeasement and not any of the other parties?" I'm criticizing them BECAUSE they're the ruling party. They have been in power for close to 10 years now. That's more than 1/3rd of my whole life. This is a hilarious question because I would've been criticizing the same action if it would've been taken by any other political party. I don't have a problem with the party, I have a problem with what they're doing. All citizens are SUPPOSED to do this, my friend. Criticizing your government on what they're doing wrong is a fundamental part of a democracy.

"Politics of appeasement." I hope you understand the difference between appeasement and religious nationalism. The ruling party isn't appeasing anyone. Their acts are guided by their political ideology of Hindutva. I fundamentally disagree with their ideology. I do not agree with them when they say being Hindu is integral to being an Indian. I do not believe in maintaining a Hindu hegemony in India. I simply refuse to accept an ideology that was LITERALLY INSPIRED BY FASCISM AND THE IDEAS OF RACIAL SUPERIORITY.

"What do you have to say about so-and-so?" You know, I would've criticised things I believe are harming our country and power when the governments you speak of were in power. Unfortunately, in certain cases I was not alive then to criticize them and in a few cases, I was a child and I did not know how to form complex sentences. I do not believe in essentialism, you understand? I do not believe that any religion or political party is essentially good or bad. I believe in judging them for what they do.

"They've been campaigning for the Ram Mandir for decades. It doesn't make it automatically a bad move." It's imperative for you to understand this, it is politically a good move and in all other ways a HORRIBLE move. They get the support of all the Hindus who make up the majority of the population? Decent political move. Who could begrudge them for using DIVIDE AND CONQUER as a strategy? But in doing so, what kind of monster have they created? Have they created a billion people who think religious-nationalism is an okay direction for the country's future? Is that a good move, I ask you.

"Ram mandir is built through devotee donations so it's okay." That's close to ₹1,800 crores. (Estimated amount because of course, there's no transparency in the donation system so that we know who donated what amount.) Do you seriously believe all that money came out of the pockets of average working class Indians? Or did the ultra wealthy businessmen fund this religious project and get massive tax breaks in the process? But yes, I'm sure there's no fuckery going on with the money because it's out of DEVOTION. That makes it okay, I guess.

Now we come to the part that is the worst part of this anon message, according to me.

"Reclamation and decolonization." You use these words so lightly and I find that offensive. These words are HIGHLY tied to power structures. Who has the power right now? Is it the mythic evil Islamic conquerors of 400 years ago? Or is it a political party that believes in hindu nationalism and is funded by the ultra wealthy billionaires because said party helps them get even richer? Who is reclaiming what here? I want you to ask yourself this. Can a powerful majority claim reclamation when they tear down a building to build another building there?

"They tore down the temple and built a mosque there" And now you've torn down the mosque and built a temple there. Congratulations, you've won the game. Where do we go from here? Will everyone be happy now? Has peace been restored? A great evil destroyed? What story are we telling ourselves here? Will the religious fanaticism go away now? Will the hatred that has been cultivated in the hearts of Hindus against Muslims be sated? Or will it find more avenues to spread itself?

Decolonizing the mind, right? I wonder why we're only focused on decolonizing against the islamic past and not anything else. But it's okay that India is currently colonising Kashmir. We don't believe in decolonisation when it comes to Kashmir. We don't believe in decolonizing from the system of capitalism that is choking the lives out of us. HELL, WE DON'T EVEN BELIEVE IN RECLAMATION SEEING HOW WE HAVE A PROBLEM WITH GIVING THE BARE MINIMUM RESERVATION TO CERTAIN COMMUNITIES AS A REPARATION FOR THE HARM THEY'VE HISTORICALLY AND CURRENTLY SUFFERED AND ARE STILL SUFFERING.

I don't want people to talk to me about reclamation, reparation and decolonisation before they accept their own hypocrisy.

Anon, you say have so much vitriol and hate towards a mandir. I should let people celebrate. Did I stop you personally from celebrating? Did I beat up somebody for trying to shove their religious agenda on me? All I did was talk about how sad I am that this is what we've decided to do with our country's resources. Why is one voice of dissent such a big deal to you? Do you want me to shut up and fall in line? Will that be acceptable?

[vague-humanoid]

On September 18, Prime Minister Trudeau revealed there is “credible evidence” of India’s involvement in the killing of Canadian Sikh leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar in Canada. Since then, several news reports have confirmed India’s hand in this assassination, including a Washington Post report detailing evidence of a coordinated attack. For their part, Indian state officials, including opposition members from the Congress Party, which was responsible for the 1984 Sikh Genocide in India, have denied the allegations while doubling down on their dehumanizing smear campaign of “Sikh and Khalistani terrorism.”

This is part of a dangerous trend of Indian interference and surveillance in Canada underway for decades, but that is escalating under India’s current ruling party, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).

The BJP subscribes to a Hindu supremacist or Hindutva ideology, which is a right-wing Hindu Nationalist ideology promoting an exclusionary vision of India as a Hindu Rashtra (homeland). Prime Minister Modi is a life-long member of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Singh (RSS), a sprawling Hindutva network whose primary goal is to establish a Hindu Rashtra inspired partly by Nazism and Italy’s fascists.

A recent report titled “The RSS Network in Canada” by the National Council of Canadian Muslims (NCCM) and the World Sikh Organization of Canada (WSO) details how the Hindutva movement has managed to make significant inroads in Canada. One of the aims of these Hindutva networks in Canada is to shut down justifiable criticism of Indian state policies and Hindutva forces. For example, Hindutva networks have targeted over a dozen academics in Canada with death threats for organising conferences on Hindu Nationalism. Dalit and caste-oppressed advocates in Canada have similarly faced death threats and harassment.

#WATCH | Texas, USA: Lok Sabha LoP and Congress MP Rahul Gandhi says, "The RSS believes that India is one idea and we believe that India is a multiplicity of ideas. We believe that everybody should be allowed to participate, allowed to dream, and should be given space regardless of their caste, language, religion, tradition, or history. This is the fight and the fight was crystallized in the election when millions of people in India clearly understood that the Prime Minister of India was attacking the Constitution of India...Every single word that I have said to you is in the Constitution. The foundation of modern India is the Constitution. What people understood in the election clearly, and I saw it happening when I used to raise the Constitution, people understood what I was saying. They were saying that the BJP is attacking our tradition, attacking our language, attacking our states, attacking our histories. Most importantly, what they understood was that anybody who is attacking the Constitution of India is also attacking our religious tradition. That is why in my first speech in Parliament you must have noticed when I describe Abhayamudra, the fact that this is a symbol of fearlessness and it is present in every single Indian religion....When I was saying this, the BJP could not stand it. They don't understand and we are going to make them understand. The other thing that happened was that the fear of the BJP vanished. We saw that immediately, within minutes of the election result, nobody in India was scared of the BJP or the Prime Minister of India. So these are huge achievements, not of Rahul Gandhi or the Congress party. We are peripheral. These are huge achievements of the people of India who realized democracy, of the people of India who realized that we are not going to accept an attack on our Constitution. We are not going to accept an attack on our religion, on our state...."

For the first time in 10 years, bjp lost 1 seat in gujrat to congress

momo baby really gonna have a heart attack anytime now 🤡

I so wish he lost more like i bet he burst a vein seeing that, the day he loses more then 5 seats in Gujarat he will get a heart attack

[shut-up-rabert]

If BJP actually cared about the pandits then why did Amit Shah not visit the Kashmiri pandits, who were protesting for more than 200 days demanding relocation, when he visited the Jammu region?

The truth is that all political parties use us pandits for their political agendas and spreading communal hatred in valley and eventually killing the 'Kashmiriyat'.

Honestly, I’m going to agree with you and say that Shah should have visited the protestors. As a envoy for the GoI that’s his duty. Kashmiri Pandits are unhappy with the LG and how he is treating them, and as a UT central government is all they can turn to. For a government rallying for the rights of Kashmiri Pandits, they are not doing what they are expected to by the fearful KPs.

But no, I do not agree with the fact that they do not outright care for Kashmiri Pandits, and the reason for that lies in the visit itself:

After every attack spree, Shah held meetings and assessed the security.

The government is not doing a good job addressing the plighted, I will agree, but it is still doing its job in addressing the cause, so I will not go ahead and call it outright uncaring.

Yet that is just my viewpoint, and this is a sensitive issue, so if the Kashmiri Hindus feel like what has been done is not enough, then it is their call.

But yeah, whatever his reasons be, I do think he should have met with the protesting Pandits. They have a tragic history with betrayal, and the last thing they need is another government forsaking them.

But I will still not put it on the same pedestal as “other governments” because the Kashmir under Congress and the Kashmir under BJP are still as different as night and day, and you know that well. The terrorist activity has dipped, and Kashmiri Hindus are actually being given a thought. There is a reason you will see Kashmiri Hindus holding slogans like “We love you Modiji” even while protesting against the LG that GoI appointed.

And please, instead of sugar coating them as communal clashes, lets just call them what they are: attacks against Kashmiri hindus. It is not a communal clash when one group is simply dying and fleeing.

Oh, and a Kashmiriyat that faded away all eight times in the thousand year history of genocide, that could not save the people from being forced out of their homes, from being killed, from being brutally raped, allow me to say ki bhaad mein jaye aisi Kashmiriyat.

"You Killed Bharat Mata In Manipur": Rahul Gandhi Attacks Centre

Rahul Gandhi launched a scathing attack on the Prime Minister over the ongoing unrest in Manipur which has claimed over a hundred lives.

New Delhi: The BJP has “murdered India in Manipur” and is now trying to set Haryana on fire, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said in Lok Sabha today in a scathing attack on the Narendra Modi government.

Addressing the Lower House during the debate on the no-confidence motion against the BJP government, Mr Gandhi said, “India is a voice, a voice of the heart. You have killed that voice in Manipur. You have murdered Bharat Mata in Manipur. You are traitors. My mother is sitting here. The other mother, Bharat Mata, you killed her in Manipur. That is why Prime Minister does not visit Manipur. You are not protectors of Bharat Mata, you are her killers.”

“The Prime Minister has not gone to Manipur because he doesn’t consider it a part of India. You (BJP) have divided Manipur,” Mr Gandhi said, amid loud protests from the treasury benches. He alleged that the centre can stop the violence in Manipur by calling in the Army, but has not acted yet.

Invoking the epic Ramayana, Mr Gandhi said Ravan was not killed by Ram, but by his arrogance. “You have sprinkled kerosene everywhere, you have set fire to Manipur, you are now trying the same thing in Haryana,” he said, referring to recent communal clashes in Gurugram and Nuh that killed six people.

The remarks sparked a huge uproar in the House, with senior ministers demanding Mr Gandhi’s apology.

Earlier, Mr Gandhi said that when he set out on the Bharat Jodo Yatra from Kanyakumari in Tamil Nadu to Srinagar in Jammu and Kashmir, he was confident of his fitness and did not expect it to be difficult. “But this country does not tolerate arrogance. Within a few days, an old injury resurfaced and I was in pain,” he said.

The Congress leader recounted how he derived strength and courage from the people he met during the march and also felt their pain and hardship. Mr Gandhi also recounted his conversations with two women in the relief camps set up to shelter those displaced due to ethnic violence in Manipur.

The remark sparked a huge uproar in the House, with senior ministers demanding Mr Gandhi’s apology for making the remark.

Earlier, in a scathing attack on Prime Minister Modi, Mr Gandhi questioned why he had not visited Manipur, where ongoing unrest has claimed over a 100 lives in the past two months.

“India is a voice, a voice of the heart. You have killed that voice in Manipur. You have murdered Bharat Mata in Manipur. You are traitors. My mother is sitting here. The other mother, Bharat Mata, you killed her in Manipur. That is why Prime Minister does not visit Manipur. You are not protectors of Bharat Mata, you are her killer,” Mr Gandhi said.

Rahul Gandhi Criticizes Mohan Bhagwat’s Remarks on Independence 

Rahul Gandhi, the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, has strongly criticized Mohan Bhagwat, the chief of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), for his recent remarks about India’s Independence. Gandhi accused Bhagwat of committing treason with his statements and claimed that the BJP and RSS had taken control of all major institutions in India. 

Bhagwat had said that India did not truly gain independence in 1947. He argued that true independence was achieved when the Ram Mandir was built in Ayodhya, and this moment should be celebrated as the real "Independence Day." According to Bhagwat, India faced foreign invasions for centuries, and it was only with the consecration of the Ram Temple that the nation experienced true freedom. 

Gandhi reacted strongly to Bhagwat’s comments. Speaking at the inauguration of the new Congress headquarters in Delhi, he said that Bhagwat’s remarks were an insult to India’s freedom struggle and the Constitution. He pointed out that the building where the Congress party was holding its event was a symbol of India’s diversity and the sacrifices made by millions of people for the nation’s freedom. 

According to Gandhi, if Bhagwat made such remarks in any other country, he would have been charged with treason. Gandhi emphasized that the Indian Constitution, which guarantees equality and freedom for all citizens, was being attacked by the RSS chief when he undermined the 1947 Independence movement and the Constitution itself. 

Gandhi further explained that the country was now facing a battle between two conflicting visions. On one side, there is the Congress vision of India as a union of states, where all languages, cultures, and communities are treated equally. On the other side, he said, there is the RSS vision of a centralized, single-culture nation. 

He accused the current government of trying to suppress the voices of Dalits, minorities, backward castes, and tribals, while promoting an agenda that favors a single, powerful leader and a hidden, secret society. 

Gandhi concluded by calling out the current government’s disregard for the national flag and the Constitution, stating that their vision of India was vastly different from what the Congress party believes in. He urged people not to accept what he described as the “nonsense” being promoted by the BJP and RSS. To read political news in Hindi, subscribe to our newsletter!

[ad_1] Paromita Das GG News Bureau New Delhi, 7th Jan. Sam Pitroda, Chairman of the Indian Overseas Congress and a close confidant of Rahul Gandhi, has once again stirred controversy by defending Hungarian-American billionaire George Soros. Soros, infamous for funding anti-national activities and fostering narratives that undermine Bharat’s democratic setup, has been a contentious figure in Bharatiya political discourse. Pitroda’s remarks, made during a virtual meeting hosted by the Overseas Congress, not only defended Soros’s interference in Bharatiya affairs but also criticized the Bharatiya government’s stringent regulations on foreign funding for NGOs. In his statements, Pitroda lamented the difficulties of channeling foreign funds into Bharat, claiming that civil society is being stifled under the Modi government. He dismissed the criticism of Soros as unwarranted, saying, “He [Soros] is doing his stuff, you do your stuff.” Such a defense of Soros, given his well-documented history of funding disruptive activities in Bharat, has sparked a political storm, with many accusing Pitroda and the Congress of aligning with global interests that seek to destabilize Bharat’s sovereignty.

In Bharat, Soros’s involvement became a flashpoint when he openly criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the 2023 Munich Security Conference, accusing him of crony capitalism and calling for a “democratic revival” in the country. Soros’s remarks were seen as a direct attack on Bharat’s sovereignty, with the BJP alleging that his narrative was being echoed by Congress leaders like Rahul Gandhi. Soros’s OSF, operational in Bharat since 1999, has funneled millions into NGOs, media outlets, and other entities under the guise of philanthropy. However, these funds have often been linked to activities that seek to manipulate Bharat’s political narrative and hinder nationalist policies. Soros’s agenda, cloaked in liberal values, has raised concerns about foreign interference in Bharat’s democratic processes, particularly as his funding has supported groups with Islamist and Marxist leanings. Pitroda’s Controversial Ties and Pro-Western Advocacy Sam Pitroda’s defense of Soros is not surprising, given his long-standing ties to Western interests. A Gandhi family loyalist and advisor to former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi, Pitroda has been accused of advancing agendas aligned with the US deep state. His involvement with organizations like the Global Knowledge Initiative (GKI), funded by entities such as the Rockefeller Foundation and USAID, has further fueled suspicions about his role in promoting foreign interference in Bharat. Pitroda’s recent remarks criticizing Bharat’s restrictions on foreign funding for NGOs reflect a broader narrative propagated by the Congress party. These regulations, implemented under the Modi government, were aimed at curbing the misuse of foreign funds for anti-national activities. However, Pitroda’s opposition to these measures suggests a preference for unchecked foreign influence in Bharat’s civil society. Rahul Gandhi’s Echoes of the Soros Agenda Rahul Gandhi, too, has drawn criticism for his alignment with narratives that resonate with Soros’s agenda. During his international visits, Gandhi has repeatedly called for foreign intervention in Bharat’s internal affairs. From equating BJP’s electoral victories with the reigns of Saddam Hussein and Gaddafi to accusing the Modi government of undermining democracy, Gandhi’s rhetoric has often mirrored the talking points of Western liberal establishments.

portrayed the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the Delhi riots as examples of Bharat’s declining democracy, echoing the same themes Soros and his networks have propagated.

Pitroda’s lament about the “major task” of sending donations to Bharatiya NGOs ignores the misuse of such funds in the past. Reports have revealed how foreign-funded organizations have been involved in stalling development projects, inciting protests, and fostering anti-national sentiments. The Modi government’s crackdown on these activities has been instrumental in ensuring that Bharat’s democratic processes are not hijacked by external interests. A Misguided Defense of a Global Manipulator Sam Pitroda’s defense of George Soros is both tone-deaf and deeply problematic. Soros is not an altruistic philanthropist but a regime-change enthusiast with a long history of meddling in sovereign nations’ internal affairs. His Open Society Foundations have consistently funded initiatives aimed at destabilizing governments that do not align with his globalist vision. For Pitroda to dismiss Soros’s actions as harmless is to willfully ignore the damage his interventions have caused. The Congress party’s association with figures like Soros and its continued critique of nationalist policies suggest a troubling disconnect with the aspirations of the Bharatiya electorate. By aligning with global interests that seek to undermine Bharat’s sovereignty, the Congress risks further alienating itself from the Bharatiya people. Conclusion: Bharat’s Sovereignty Must Be Protected Sam Pitroda’s remarks defending George Soros and lamenting the Modi government’s regulations on foreign funding expose a larger battle over Bharat’s sovereignty. While the Congress and its allies may view Soros as a benign figure advocating for liberal values, his actions tell a different story. Soros’s agenda, funded by vast resources and cloaked in the rhetoric of democracy, poses a direct threat to Bharat’s independence and democratic institutions. As Bharat navigates its path in a complex global landscape, it is imperative to safeguard its sovereignty against external interference. The Modi government’s measures to regulate foreign funding are a step in the right direction, ensuring that Bharat’s destiny remains in the hands of its people and not dictated by global power brokers like Soros.

Kumar Vishwas has started batting dangerously on the pitch of Hindutva, what is his intention? Opinion

Kumar Vishwas has generally followed the soft Hindutva line. There have been talks of him joining the BJP but he never speaks against Nehru or Indira Gandhi. He also considers Rahul Gandhi a good person. He has also taken a dig at the BJP and RSS when he had the opportunity. But now he has adopted the hardline Hindutva line.

Poet, story teller, motivational speaker, former politician Kumar Vishwas is in the news these days. Recently, he came under the target of so-called secular parties by taking a dig at Bollywood artist Sonakshi Sinha's marriage without naming her. It has not even been 2 weeks since this incident that he attacked Saif Ali Khan and his son Taimur without naming them. Obviously, his video clips are going viral on social media. One section is opposing him while millions of people are supporting him with loud applause. The thing to see is that one thing common in both of his statements is that both of them support the concept of radical Hindutva. Although a story teller talks about Hindu religion, Vishwas's Hindutva seems to go much further than that. The biggest thing is that the public is liking him. ...So what should be understood from this?

Till now all parties were equal for him He is not only commenting on Sonakshi and Saif Ali, for the last few days, his speech is showing the style of a hard core leader of BJP. This tone of Vishwas is being considered special and surprising because till now he used to walk a middle path. There was a balance in his statements, speeches and interviews. Which made it seem that he wanted to keep his doors open for both Congress and BJP. Rahul Gandhi was praised in his statements and he was never seen speaking against Nehru and Indira Gandhi. Along with this, many times he also criticized BJP and Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh. He once also took a dig at Baba Ramdev, the video of which is suddenly going viral. In this video, while reciting a poem, Kumar Vishwas is saying that I bought his salt during Navratri, I think he sells his product in such a way that if you do not buy it, then you resign from Sanatan Dharma on the same day. Vishwas says that it was written on that product that it was 25 lakh years old salt extracted from the Himalayas, and the expiry date written below it was 7th February. During this, he is also seen taking a dig at Acharya Balkrishna. This is the reason why the sudden change in the form of Kumar Vishwas is surprising people.

The path of radical Hindutva is coming at a time when it seems that BJP itself is changing. The way RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat and Narendra Modi have shown their path against radicalism in the last few days, it seems that we have delayed the decision again. Because on one hand, the RSS chief is saying that the temple mosque dispute should now stop in the country. On the other hand, PM Modi is sending chaadar for Ajmer Dargah. He celebrates Christmas by going to the church. It is clear that whether it is RSS or BJP, both are going through a phase of change at this time. But in Uttar Pradesh, BJP is in a different colour. The kind of speech CM Yogi Adityanath gave in the UP assembly after the Sambhal violence, it was clear from that that the issue of Hindutva will remain hot in Uttar Pradesh.

From the things Kumar Vishwas said in the presence of CM Yogi Adityanath and Rajnath Singh at the program held on Atal Jayanti in Lucknow, it was clear that he has no regrets for the jibe he made on Sonakshi Sinha's marriage. He then said that I advise everyone to read Ramayana and Mahabharata. If you read Hindu scriptures, you will not make such mistakes. Then I say that give complete information about the family members of Ram and Sita to your family members. Then he also takes another jibe at Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal without naming him. Vishwas says that I had read Mahabharata and Ramayana, so I understood that if my friend has become Duryodhan, then it is better to leave the chariot, otherwise he will be killed like Karna. Today he would have been giving account of the liquor scam. 3- Has Vishwas received Yogi's blessings? In this Lucknow program, Vishwas had also predicted Yogi's becoming the Prime Minister. He said that these days I am listening to the statements of my leftist brothers. They are praising Atal ji. When Atal ji was in power, he was called a fanatic. Then Advani ji came and the same people started praising Atal ji. After this, when Narendra Modi became the Prime Minister, both Atal and Advani became great. Then he turned towards CM Yogi and said that Chief Minister ji, the day is not far when people will call PM Modi good.

Kumar Vishwas did not stop here. He praised Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. He described Yogi as the most optimistic source of energy in India. Actually, what Kumar Vishwas meant to say was that the day is not far when Yogi Adityanath will come to the Centre, and then people will say what a good person Narendra Modi was. After this statement of his, the people present on the stage started smiling and there was applause too. Meanwhile, Kumar also said that when the BJP state president came to me, it felt as if he was giving a slip for a seat. There was a lot of applause for this.

There are only benefits for the believers in the path of Hinduism Actually, there are only benefits for Kumar Vishwas from batting aggressively on the Hindu pitch. Till now, Ram Katha has been done in the traditional style. All the old narrators like Morari Bapu etc. are getting old. Meanwhile, the demand for Kumar Vishwas as a narrator has increased in the whole country. His eloquence and being a stage poet brings life to his storytelling. People listen to his story with full attention for hours. People like his jokes in between. The tadka of hardline Hindutva in it makes people feel proud of their religion. It is obvious that what else does a narrator need. He has already burnt his hands in politics once. Secondly, he himself says that speaking the truth and not bowing down before anyone makes his political success doubtful. Despite this, who does not have the greed for power? It is obvious that the path of hardline Hindutva is going to pave the way for political success.
