lok sabha election 2024 : BJP National President JP Nadda has attacked the opposition and alleged that, 'Congress and Indian alliance want to snatch the rights of Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and other backward classes and give them to Muslims. This is their hidden agenda and clear appeasement is visible in the election manifesto of Congress.
'BJP does not want to ignore Muslims, but…'
He said, 'BJP does not want to ignore Muslims, but Muslims should not get undue benefits at the cost of other communities. Congress says that Muslims have the first right on the country's property, while Prime Minister Narendra Modi says that the poor have the first right on the country's property.
'Former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh made a deliberate statement'
Referring to the tenure of the UPA government, he said, 'In December 2006, former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh had given a statement that Muslims have the first right on the country's resources, not by mistake but intentionally. Then in April 2009, in response to a question, he justified his statement and said that minorities, especially Muslims, should be given priority. Muslims should have the first right on the country's resources.
'The committee's claim that the condition of Muslims is bad' is wrong.
Alleging that the Sachar Committee report was wrong, Nadda said, 'In the report, the condition of Muslims has been shown to be worse than that of Dalits. The implication of the report is clear that Congress is already trying to declare Muslims as Scheduled Caste by any means, so that they can be given benefits under SC reservation. He also said that Jawaharlal Nehru was always in favor of Muslims.
