On Monday Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath launched an attack on Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for his remark that Rajas and Maharajas used to take away land and called him an accidental Hindu who remains silent on the atrocities committed by Muslim rulers.
Yogi Adityanath said, ‘People who don’t know the history and geography of Bharat will definitely make such irrelevant comments, When I talk about Rahul Gandhi, I remember that once these people called themselves accidental Hindus. Bharat has a rich tradition and our sages, Maharajas, and every section of the society have contributed in their respective fields’.
He further said, ‘Rahul ji never remembered the atrocities of the Mughals, who left no stone unturned to Islamise Bharat. It is unfortunate that those who call themselves accidental Hindus cannot feel pride about Bharat’s heritage’.
The debate was sparked when Rahul Gandhi, while addressing a public meeting in Karnataka, claimed that Rajas and Maharajas did whatever they wished like taking away the land of their peasants.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday blasted the opposition leader, saying that the Shehzada (Rahul Gandhi ) insulted the revered Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and Rani Chennamma, whose good governance and patriotism still fill us with national pride and honour’.
