‘Send him to UP, we will treat him properly’, Yogi lashes out at Abu Azmi

Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath on Wednesday reacted to Abu Azmi’s controversial statement and said that ‘Aurangzeb is more the ideal of Samajwadi Party than Lohia.’ Samajwadi Party MLA Abu Azmi was suspended from the Maharashtra Assembly for the entire session amid controversy over his recent remarks praising Mughal emperor Aurangzeb. On Samajwadi Party MLA Abu Azmi’s statement on Aurangzeb, Yogi Adityanath said that remove that person from the (Samajwadi) party and send him to UP, we will treat him. Yogi said that a person who feels ashamed of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj’s legacy, instead of being proud, considers Aurangzeb as his ideal, does he have the right to live in our country? He said that Samajwadi Party should answer this. On one hand you keep blaming Maha Kumbh. On the other hand you praise a person like Aurangzeb, who destroyed the temples of the country. Why can’t you control that MLA of yours? Why did you not condemn his statement? He clearly said that remove that person from the (Samajwadi) party and send him to UP, we will treat him.
