In a firm defense of his administration's actions, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath emphasized that roads are meant for traffic, not religious gatherings. Speaking in an exclusive interview, Adityanath urged the Muslim community to adopt the religious discipline demonstrated by Hindus during the Kumbh Mela.
Criticizing the Waqf boards, he argued they have become centers for property misappropriation rather than benefiting Muslims. Adityanath called for necessary reforms, likening temple charity work in education and health to the inefficient use of Waqf properties.
Adityanath, known for his Hindutva stance, stated that government welfare schemes fairly include a significant Muslim population share. He addressed the controversial use of bulldozers for justice and infrastructure, reinforcing that his administration prioritizes lawful actions.
