Political parties have slammed Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath for his remark on "people who say Abba Jaan" in an apparent attack against the Muslim community and the Samajwadi Party. I've always maintained the BJP has no intention of fighting any election with an agenda other than blatant communalism & hatred with all the venom directed towards Muslims. Here is a CM seeking re-election claiming that Muslims ate up all the rations meant for Hindus. https://t.co/zaYtK43vpd Addressing a programme in Kushinagar on Sunday, Mr Adityanath alleged that people did not get rations before 2017 like they do now. "Because then, people who say 'abba jaan' used to digest the rations. The rations of Kushinagar used to go to Nepal and Bangladesh. Today, if anybody tries to swallow the rations meant for poor people, he will land in jail," the chief minister said. "Abba Jaan" is an Urdu language term for father.

"I've always maintained the BJP has no intention of fighting any election with an agenda other than blatant communalism & hatred with all the venom directed towards Muslims.
