Yogi Adityanath again lands in trouble for communal remarks against Muslims
Lucknow: The Election Commission on Thursday issued a show-cause notice to Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath for violating the model code of conduct (MCC) by making communal remarks against Muslims.
The Commission cited Yogi’s April 19 speech in Uttar Pradesh’s Sambhal where he spoke against Muslims while addressing voters, saying: “Do you want to keep the nations in hands of anti-nationals, sons of Babur…? Do you want to give the reigns in the hands of opponents of Bajarangbali?”
Yogi Adityanath surrounds with controversy for communal remarks against Muslims:
Last month, the EC had taken action against Yogi for making communal remarks in Meerut and barred him from campaigning for 72 hours.
Reminding Yogi of the action, Commission in the notice said it is prima facie of the opinion that he violated the MCC by making impugned statements in Sambhal.
“Now, therefore, the Commission, after considering the available material and extant instructions on the matter, has decided to provide an opportunity to explain your stand regarding the said statement. Your explanation shall be submitted within 24 hours of receipt of this notice, failing which the Commission shall take a decision without further reference to you,” reads the notice.
Section 144 has been imposed in Uttar Pradesh’s capital Lucknow with immediate effect on Tuesday morning. According to the information, to maintain law and order, till April 5, orders have been given to keep Section 144 in force. During this period, any kind of picket demonstrations, agitations and rallies will be banned.
In a press note, Lucknow Joint Commissioner of Police (Law & Order) Naveen Arora said that there is a strong possibility of the farmers’ agitation aggravating which can create a law and order situation in Lucknow.
The local administration said that political parties, student organisations, or farmer unions could hold protests in the region and that may lead to an “adverse effect” on the prevailing peaceful situation.
