Meerut, July 2 -- Attacking the Opposition, particularly the Samajwadi Party, amid the Ram temple donation controversy, chief minister Yogi Adityanath on Wednesday alleged that the same political forces that had ordered police action against people chanting "Jai Shri Ram" were now misleading the people and accusing the government of hurting religious sentiments. He said the same people opposed the Ram Janmabhoomi movement, the redevelopment of Kashi Vishwanath Dham and development projects in Mathura-Vrindavan. He asserted that no one would be allowed to insult or interfere with faith under his government's watch. Adityanath made the remarks in Saharanpur where he inaugurated and laid the foundation stones for development projects worth Rs.620 crore. Accusing the Opposition of attempting to defame Ayodhya, he said those who once claimed that "not even a bird could enter Ayodhya" had been proved wrong when lakhs of Ram devotees reached the city as kar sevaks in the 1990s. The chief minister also urged people not to fall prey to those seeking to divide society on the basis of caste or region, saying such politics weakens both society and the nation. He accused the opposition of maintaining a "double character" on matters of faith. He further alleged that government funds were earlier diverted towards constructing boundary walls around graveyards instead of development works. He said that before the BJP came to power in 2017, western Uttar Pradesh was plagued by riots, insecurity and migration. He claimed that women and girls did not feel safe, traders lived in fear and migration from Kairana had created concerns about demographic changes in the region. The SP government had attempted to protect rioters by withdrawing criminal cases against them, he alleged. He said his government adopted a zero-tolerance approach towards violence after assuming office and ensured that those responsible for disturbances were brought to justice. He alleged that although funds were available before 2017, they were either "pocketed by henchmen" or spent on projects that did not contribute to public welfare. The same resources, he said, are now being invested in roads, elevated corridors, artisan welfare, and the development of the Sarsawa Civil Terminal and its runway. He contrasted his government's development model with that of previous administrations, saying that while earlier governments focused only on Saifai, the BJP's "double-engine government" was working for all 57,000 gram panchayats across Uttar Pradesh. He said development was now being carried out uniformly across districts, including Saharanpur. "Before 2017, there was money, but there was no vision for development. Today, Saharanpur is getting its own airport, the first phase of the medical college has been completed, and a grand corridor is being developed at Maa Shakambhari," he said....
