- CM urges people to create a new record for Narendra Modi after attending Ganga Aarti at Assi Ghat
- Anti-India elements are not safe even in the enemy’s house, says CM
- As the most popular politician, Modi is giving a global recognition to Kashi: Yogi
Varanasi.Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath appealed to the people of Kashi to break all previous records of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s victory in elections through their overwhelming support.
Addressing a public meeting at Assi Ghat Varanasi on Saturday, CM Yogi remarked that the NDA has already passed the target of 400 seats following the conclusion of the sixth phase of Lok sabha elections.
Prior to the rally, Yogi visited Assi Ghat boarding a cruise from Namo Ghat and participated in the Aarti of Mother Ganga. He also paid obeisance at the feet of Nath of Kashi, Mother Ganga, Mother Annapurna and Kotwal of Kashi Baba Bhairav.
The CM said that PM Modi would win with record votes, adding that the message sent from Kashi will work to bring the concept of Ram Rajya to the ground level. Notably, elections were held on 14 seats in Uttar Pradesh and 58 seats in the country in the sixth phase on Saturday.
“The people of Kashi take pride in telling current and future generations that they witnessed the end of a five-hundred-year wait. Having elected PM Modi to Parliament, they can proudly declare that they have restored the glory of Ayodhya, India, and Sanatan Dharma. While PM Modi brings honor and virtue, the dark deeds of Congress are evident to all. These people have consistently opposed Sanatan Dharma and the Ram Mandir.”
“When Ram Lalla appeared in the Ayodhya temple in 1949, the Congress governments at both the state and central levels took steps to lock it up. In 1986, when the court ordered the lock to be opened, they placed Lord Ram in a sack. They even argued in the Supreme Court that Ram and Krishna did not exist, thereby endangering the existence of our revered gods and the Supreme Father.
They support terrorists and Naxalites and are absent during crises. In contrast, Modi adheres to religious traditions, visiting the temple and completing eleven days of rituals before dedicating himself to Ayodhya.”
“Before 2014, Kashi suffered neglect and anarchy and had become a hub for terrorist activities. Mafia and criminal elements dominated, creating an identity crisis for the people. However, in 2014, Kashi elected Narendra Modi, the world’s most popular politician and architect of a better India, as its public representative. Today, in the new Uttar Pradesh of the new India, Kashi appears grand and divine.”
Yogi said that when Swachh Bharat Abhiyan was to be started, PM Modi had brought a shovel to the Assi Ghat.” The cleanliness program he started has become a movement today. The ghats of Kashi are considered to be the most beautiful spiritual and cultural ghats in the world”, he remarked.
“PM Modi started many works to give recognition to Kashi. The vision of uninterrupted and clean Ganga that he has realized is going to give a new life to the followers of Sanatan Dharma, the people of Uttar Pradesh and India. There is four lane connectivity all around in Kashi. Kashi International Airport is considered to be the busiest airport in the country. The country’s largest ropeway is constructed in Kashi. The temples of Kashi are rejuvenated”, he stated.
CM Yogi remarked that Baba Vishwanath was also awaiting the arrival of the devotee Modi, knowing that with his presence, Kashi Vishwanath Dham would appear divine and grand. Under Modi’s leadership, Kashi has set new records, with the arrival of 16 crore devotees showcasing its status as a top tourist destination. Kashi now boasts an excellent model of infrastructure and railways, he remarked, adding that the days of slow meter gauge trains are one now replaced by Namo Bharat, Vande Bharat, and Amrit Bharat trains connect Kashi to various parts of the country.
“Kashi airport now connects the region with the rest of the country and the world. Modi ji emphasized that Mother Ganga is not only a symbol of our faith but will also become an excellent model for water transport, aiding in maintaining its continuity and purity. This vision has materialized, with sailors and locals using water transport to enhance their trade. Kashi has emerged as a multimodal terminal hub, exemplified by the operation of the world’s largest cruise from Kashi via Haldia last year. Additionally, a ropeway will soon connect Cantt to Baba Vishwanath, reducing travel time to just a few minutes. This project is expected to be completed by the end of this year, he remarked.
CM Yogi stated that the new Kashi symbolizes the birth of a new Uttar Pradesh with a divine presence. “Kashi’s choice of Modiji has led to an India where terrorism and Naxalism have been eradicated. With a strong government in place, the country’s enemies are compelled to offer explanations. Previously, there were explosions in several places, including Sankat Mochan Temple and Kachari in Kashi, as well as in Delhi, Mumbai, and Ahmedabad. At that time, the governments were powerless, but today, terrorists from across the border have been eliminated. Even the most prestigious newspaper in the UK now acknowledges that in the past three years, more than two dozen deadly terrorists were killed inside Pakistan, suggesting that Indian agencies might be behind this. This implies that anti-India elements are not safe even in enemy territory”, he remarked.
CM Yogi said that Kashi has presented a model of development and heritage with Vishwanath Dham in Kashi and Shri Ram’s Dham in Ayodhya bearing examples of this. “Members of the Indi alliance claim that the Ram temple should not be built in India. Samajwadi Party leaders even say that the Ram temple is worthless, showing a lack of understanding. However, lakhs of devotees are flocking to Ayodhya, the birthplace of Lord Ram. Devotees of Sanatan Dharma from around the world come, with some kissing the pillars and others lying down in reverence, often with tears in their eyes. Modi ji ended the 500-year wait in Ayodhya, blessing our birth and life. He also revitalized Kashi by renovating its ghats and temples, demonstrating his commitment to our heritage.” “People of Indi alliance say that Ram temple should not be built in India. Samajwadi Party leaders say that Ram temple has been built worthless. His intelligence has become useless. Lakhs of devotees are coming to Ayodhya, the birthplace of Lord Ram. Sanatan Dharma devotees from all over the world come, some kiss the pillar and some lie down on the ground. People have tears in their eyes. By ending the wait of 500 years in Ayodhya, Modi ji blessed our birth and life. Modi demonstrated this by renovating the ghats of Kashi and the temples of Kashi.
Yogi Adityanath alleged that the Congress governments in Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh divided the Muslim community by providing OBC reservations. He said that the Kolkata High Court overturned the 2010 decisions of the Trinamool Congress, which had distributed OBC reservations among 118 Muslim castes, declaring it unconstitutional. “As long as Modi is in power, no one will be allowed to undermine OBC-SC reservations. It is Modi who has honored Baba Saheb Bhimrao Ambedkar, and thanks to him, the beautification of Lord Buddha’s Sarnath, Saint Kabir’s Lahartara, and Saint Ravidas’s Seer Govardhan have become grand and divine”, he stated.
CM Yogi described PM Modi as the pride of Uttar Pradesh and Kashi, stating that the elected representative is making India famous globally and giving Kashi a new identity as the most popular politician. Now, Kashi no longer has to deal with hanging wires, traffic jams, or dirty drains. Like the national capital, Kashi’s roads now boast a network of four-lane and six-lane highways, adding to its divinity and appeal.
CM Yogi warned that if the Congress comes to power, they will bring in personal laws and the alliance will try to implement Taliban-like rule. Rahul Gandhi has stated that after property surveys, he will impose an inheritance tax, taking half the property and distributing it among infiltrators from Pakistan and Bangladesh. He drew a parallel to Aurangzeb’s demolition of Baba Vishwanath and the Lord Temple of Mathura, as well as the imposition of the Jizya tax, comparing it to the proposed inheritance tax. However, he asserted that such policies will not take hold. India is now a land of festivals, not terrorism, and Uttar Pradesh is no longer a state of mafia. Celebrations like Deepotsav, Rangotsav, and Dev Diwali are taking place while the mafia is being buried.
