Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Bandi Sanjay Kumar launched a scathing attack on “communists and urban naxals” on Thursday, questioning their role in “inciting violence and misleading innocent people.”
Speaking at the BJP state office alongside senior leaders G. Manohar Reddy, S. Kumar, S. Prakash Reddy, and Shilpa Reddy, he accused these groups of hypocrisy and demanded that those holding positions in the government resign if they have any moral integrity.
“While the Modi government has transformed India into the world’s fourth-largest economy and lifted 25 crore people out of poverty, the urban naxals continue to provoke youth into taking up arms against the Constitution,” said Mr. Sanjay.
He condemned urban naxals for enjoying "luxuries in air-conditioned rooms" while innocent tribals suffer and die in forests due to misguided ideologies. “Even Naxalites in forests are surrendering after witnessing Mr. Modi’s development. Why can’t you see it?” Mr. Sanjay Kumar remarked, adding that branding BJP as "communal" for speaking about development is "unjust".
The BJP believes in democracy and has come to power through ballots, not bullets, and is committed to making India the No. 1 nation globally by 2047. Welcoming the Governor’s approval for prosecution of former minister K.T. Rama Rao, Mr. Sanjay Kumar criticised Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy for previously alleging a BJP-BRS nexus. “Corruption will not be tolerated under Mr. Modi’s leadership,” he asserted.
