The political atmosphere in Uttar Pradesh has intensified following a controversial statement made by the state Congress President Ajay Rai regarding Prime Minister Narendra Modi, while a viral video showing Ajay Rai using derogatory and abusive language against the Prime Minister has sparked a massive row, leading to a sharp reaction from Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. The Chief Minister has termed these remarks as a manifestation of the Congress party's political ill-culture and has expressed strong condemnation of the incident.
CM Yogi Adityanath's Sharp Reaction
Reacting to the viral video on the social media platform X, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath stated that the indecent, unparliamentary, and inexcusable comments made by the Uttar Pradesh Congress President about the Prime Minister reveal the deep-rooted political ill-culture of the Congress party. He further added that in the past, the 'Yuvraj' of the Congress has also displayed similar ill-culture. According to the Chief Minister, the Congress party has now reached the peak of frustration, despair, resentment, and mental bankruptcy. He remarked that the party is no longer in a position to even seek forgiveness from the citizens of the country.
Pankaj Chaudhary Criticizes Political Bankruptcy
BJP State President Pankaj Chaudhary also launched a counter-attack on Ajay Rai's statement. He remarked that when the end is near, the quality of words begins to decline. He described this as a sign of Congress's agitation and stated that Ajay Rai's abusive language is evidence of the party's political bankruptcy. Chaudhary questioned the intentions of the Congress party, noting that while they talk about a shop of love (Mohabbat ki Dukaan), their intentions remain extremely bitter. He expressed confidence that the aware citizens of the country would respond to this behavior through democratic means.
Amit Malviya Highlights the Irony
Amit Malviya, the person in charge of BJP's National Information and Technology Department and a member of the National Executive, also strongly condemned Ajay Rai. Posting the video on X, Malviya pointed out a significant contrast in behavior. He mentioned that just a few days ago, when Ajay Rai was unwell, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had publicly wished for his speedy recovery. However, today, the same Ajay Rai was caught on camera using inappropriate language against the Prime Minister. Malviya stated that this reflects the level of Congress's politics, where courtesy is met with indecency.
Context of the Viral Video and Past Events
In the viral video shared by Amit Malviya, Ajay Rai can be heard using abusive words against Prime Minister Narendra Modi while standing with workers as a car moves slowly. He's seen repeating an abusive sentence before moving forward, while this incident is particularly notable because of a recent health scare involving Ajay Rai. A few days ago, his health had deteriorated during a program in Lucknow, after which he was admitted to Medanta Hospital, while at that time, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had posted on X, wishing for his quick recovery and good health. The BJP leaders have highlighted this contrast to showcase the difference in political conduct between the two parties.
