Naqvi slams opposition for attacking SIR, says neither citizenship nor voting rights of Muslims in danger
During an awareness program held at SIR in Koyla gram panchayat in Rampur, Uttar Pradesh, the former minority affairs minister alleged that some fake secularists, in the garb of a well-planned political conspiracy, want to politically marginalize Muslims by launching communal attacks on every constitutional reform so that they can sow distrust and harvest votes.
Naqvi said these political parties, which take Muslim votes en masse, do not empower the minority community socially, educationally, economically or politically.
He said those belonging to the “defeated dynasty” were conspiring to denigrate a vibrant democracy through violent anarchy.
He added that the deliberate design to denigrate the dominance of democracy through deception has been condemned by the people.
Naqvi urged people to be wary of the “political pollution spread by the evil union”, which is trying to create misleading fear and misconception about the SIR of the voters’ list. He said the security of eligible voters and scrutiny of ineligible voters is a continuous process of the electoral system of a committed democracy. Hitting out at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, Naqvi said the “liar lobby” had proven that the “hydrogen bomb” was an attack. Their ploy to denigrate constitutional democracy emerged as a “bubble”.
“These people are cunningly trying to make democracy a hostage of the dynasty,” he said.
“The worn-out scenario of vote theft has also failed to save the mission of power-hungry sultans, and the loudmouths of the dynasty are becoming a burden,” he said.
Naqvi said the high voter turnout in Bihar, amid allegations of vote theft, proves that the excitement created by the opposition has been completely negated in the polls.
“Criminal anarchy aimed at deterring people from voting has failed. High voter turnout is a message of the great victory of democracy,” he said.
Bihar elections are being held in two phases, November 6 and 11, and the results will be announced on November 14. In the first phase, voter turnout of 65.08 percent was recorded, the highest in the state’s history.
Hitting out a harsh blow at the Mahagathbandhan in Bihar, Naqvi said the alliances achieved success through political understanding and not due to feudal whims.
“The power-hungry sultans of feudal politics must understand that a government is formed and governed by a mission of good governance, not by feudal arrogance. Power is not a birthright but a gift of the people’s mandate and cannot be made dependent or subservient to any feudal policy or family inheritance,” he said.
Naqvi said the constant rhetoric of the “arrogant family” had turned the Congress into a laughing stock.
He said the Muslim community must reconsider the “manner of defeating the BJP”, otherwise the pseudo-secular union will continue to use its hatred for the party for its own political gain.
