PM Modi And INDIA Alliance: “INDIA bloc parties will rewrite the Constitution to provide reservation on the basis of religion,” said Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday as he further claimed that the INDIA alliance wants to “turn the country’s majority community into second-class citizens”.
Prime Minister Modi was addressing an election rally in Purvanchal’s Ghosi in Mau, Uttar Pradesh when he alleged that the opposition parties will end the reservation given to SC, ST, and OBC and give all of it to the Muslims.
The rally was held in support of BJP and NDA candidates from Ghosi, Salempur and Ballia Lok Sabha seats.
PM Modi said that the Samajwadi Party and Congress have neglected Purvanchal over the years and turned it into a “region of mafia, poverty, and helplessness”.
“Today, I have come to alert the people of Purvanchal and Ghosi about the big conspiracy of the INDIA alliance,” said PM Modi as he said that there are three “big conspiracies” being worked on.
“First, the people of INDIA alliance will change the Constitution and write in it afresh that reservation should be given on the basis of religion in India. Second, these INDIA people will end the reservation given to SC, ST, and OBC. Third, they will give the entire reservation to Muslims.
“A third method has been created to circumvent the OBC reservation. They are declaring Muslim castes as OBC overnight. Recently, the Calcutta High Court has rejected OBC reservation for 77 Muslim castes,” said the PM adding that today, the SP, Congress, and INDIA people want to make the majority community in India second-class citizens.
“The people associated with the INDIA Alliance who set fire to your houses, encroached on the land, who emboldened rioters, who shed tears for the mafia, such people should not be allowed to set foot in Purvanchal,” said the PM.
“In 2012 assembly polls, the SP had clearly written in its manifesto that the reservation that Babasaheb gave to Dalits, similar reservation will be given to Muslims,” he said adding that the Congress declared educational establishments as minority institutions and gave reservation to Muslims there.
“Before 2014, the Congress changed the law overnight to declare schools, colleges and universities as minority institutions. They declared thousands of educational institutions as minority institutions. Earlier, the reservation SC, ST and OBC students were getting there was completely ended and Muslims got reservation.”
