Yogi Adityanath Accuses Congress, SP of Exploiting Dalits and Disrespecting Ambedkar’s Legacy

The Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister condemned historical and ongoing actions by opposition parties, linking them to communal violence and unveiling land reclamation efforts under the anti-Waqf measures.

Yogi Adityanath alleged that Congress denied Dr. Ambedkar a memorial in Delhi and deliberately undermined his political journey through engineered electoral defeats in the 1950s.
He accused Congress and the Samajwadi Party of exploiting Dalits and marginalized communities, claiming they occupy land meant for the poor while using social justice rhetoric for political gain.
Adityanath linked recent violence in West Bengal’s Murshidabad, where three Dalit Hindus were killed, to protests against the anti-Waqf Amendment Act, condemning opposition silence on the incident.
The Uttar Pradesh government is pursuing strict land reclamation measures to recover Waqf-encroached lands, aiming to provide public housing for marginalized communities.
Adityanath emphasized BJP’s commitment to honoring national icons like Dr. Ambedkar, contrasting it with alleged historical disrespect by opposition parties.
