Sunday, 26 January 2025 | PNS | Ranchi

Jharkhand minister Dr. Irfan Ansari is once again in the news for his controversial remarks. This time Irfan Ansari, has said that he will visit Maha Kumbh taking holy dip in Triveni at the same time he has threatened Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath saying that if UP CM has the courage, then he should stop him. On the other hand, BJP has given a sharp reaction to his statement. BJP has said that Irfan Ansari will be welcomed on his arrival at Maha Kumbh, but at the same time it has also said that he will have to come as a Hindu.

 Ansari said that he will go to take a bath in the Maha Kumbh fair and will give a message to the BJP government of Uttar Pradesh that politics should not be done in the name of religion. He gave this statement while talking to journalists in Jamtara. He further said that he will invite Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath to come to Jharkhand and see the work of the government here. He said that he will show Yogi Adityanath how development work is being done in Jharkhand.

Apart from this, Dr. Ansari also said that he has instructed the District Officer to inform him if a bulldozer is used on a poor person's house. He said that the Chief Minister of Jharkhand also says that if there is a need to demolish someone's house, then arrangements should be made first. Irfan Ansari said that 'The poor of Uttar Pradesh are devastated. The poor are crying tears of blood. The king who displaces the poor can never be successful. You will see the end of a dictator king, it is very bad. I will tell CM Yogi to stop this drama. Stop displacing people.'

Irfan Ansari has said that if his government comes in Uttar Pradesh, he will work to resettle those houses which have been dislocated by Yogi Adityanath. He said that demolishing the houses of the poor is painful and being poor is not a sin. Dr. Ansari further said that Uttar Pradesh needs a leader who understands the poor and protects their interests. He said that his Chief Minister Hemant Soren has said that whether one votes or not, everyone will be respected. He also said that the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh should also adopt the thinking that justice should be done to the poor and their rights should be protected.
