Lucknow,
19 Oct (HS): The VHP reacted negatively
to Samajwadi Party head Akhilesh Yadav's suggestion that the UP government
avoid squandering money on Diwali diyas, drawing analogies to Christmas
celebrations. Akhilesh Yadav, the chief of the Samajwadi Party, provoked outrage
with his comments on Diwali celebrations, which he compared to Christmas
celebrations throughout the world. When
addressing a crowd, Yadav stated, I don't want to make a suggestion. However, in the name of Lord Ram, I would
like to make one recommendation. During
the Christmas season, all cities throughout the world are lighted, and this
continues for months. We should take
note of their experiences. Why do we have to spend money and give so much
thought to lights and candles? What can
we expect from this administration? It should be eliminated. We will ensure that there are more attractive
lighting.
The Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP) reacted
strongly to his words.Vinod Bansal,
national spokesman, went to X to attack Yadav, stating, Just listen to
this former Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh praising Christmas on the occasion
of Diwali.The rows of diyas have
scorched his heart so severely that he is preaching to 1 billion Hindus,
telling them to stop wasting money on diyas and candles and instead learn from
Christmas.Bansal accused Yadav of
valuing foreign traditions above Indian culture.
The
so-called messiah of jihadis and conversion gangs, known as Yadav, appears to
prefer Christians to Hindus.He favors
foreign festivities above indigenous ones, he claims.
He went on to say that Diwali had previously
been celebrated with rites and traditions before Christianity existed.Hindus are now being urged to learn from
Christians!Illegal religious
conversions have grown on Lord Ram and Lord Krishna's hallowed territory, aided
by such politicians who have filled their cabinets with criminals and radicals.
He went on to say that the foreign
celebration of Christmas, which is still two months away, seemed to have come
already for Akhilesh. But Diwali, which is just a day away, and the diyas
crafted by our potter brothers appear to irritate the PDA's hypocrites.Tipu, feel some humiliation!This envy of the light of Ayodhya and the
happiness of Hindus is wrong.Perhaps
this is why some refer to their party as Asamajwadi Party (anti-social party)
rather than Samajwadi Party.
