CM Yogi hits out at SP Leader over his remarks on Vyomika Singh
NEW DELHI [Maha Media]: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath slammed Samajwadi Party MP Ram Gopal Yadav over his recent remark on Wing Commander Vyomika Singh and Air Chief Marshal AP Singh.
Hitting out at Ram Gopal Yadav, CM Yogi shared a post on his official 'X' handle and mentioned that the Army's uniform should not be seen through a "casteist" lens. He said that every soldier of the Indian Army performs national duty and is not a representative of any "caste" or "religion."
"The uniform of the army is not seen through a casteist lens. Every soldier of the Indian army performs national duty and is not a representative of any caste or religion", CM Yogi wrote in his 'X' post.
Furthermore, CM Yogi highlighted that Ram Gopal Yadav's remarks not only highlight the "narrow-mindedness" of Samajwadi Party but it is also a "grave insult" to the valour of the army and the country's identity.
"Samajwadi Party's national general secretary's act of putting a brave daughter within the ambit of caste is not only a display of his party's narrow-mindedness but also a grave insult to the valour of the army and the country's identity. This is the same mentality which dares to divide even patriotism in the name of appeasement and vote bank politics", the post further said.
Meanwhile, Ram Gopal Yadav defended his caste-related remarks on Wing Commander Vyomika Singh, referring to many cases of atrocities against minorities, Dalits and backward classes in north Indian states, especially Uttar Pradesh.
Taking a dig at UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, who labelled his remarks as "casteist", Yadav said that the CM, under whose nose the atrocities are committed, reacted to his statement without even listening to it. He also ridiculed the media channels, saying nobody except the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) trusts them.
Referring to Madhya Pradesh minister Vijay Shah's remarks on Colonel Sofiya Qureshi, Ram Gopal Yadav said at a programme in Moradabad, "One of their ministers abused Colonel Qureshi. The high court has ordered registration of a case against him again. But he did not know who Vyomika Singh was, and neither did he know about Air Marshal AK Bharti; otherwise, these people would have abused them too."
"Let me tell you. Vyomika Singh is a Jatav from Haryana, and Air Marshal Bharti is a Yadav from Purnia. So all three were from PDA (Picchda, dalit, Alpsankhyak or Backwards, dalits and minorities). One was abused because she was a Muslim. The other was spared thinking that she was a Rajput... and there was no information (to them) about Bharti. When it came in the newspaper, they were forced to think about what to do now," Yadav added.
