Is the BJP itself caught up in the narrative of “if we divide, we will divide”? Mahayuthi’s leaders clashed and now they have issued a clarification.

Devendra Fadnavis, Pankaj Munde and Ajit Pawar.

During the Maharashtra assembly campaign, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath raised the slogan “If it is divided, it will be cut” to unite Hindu voters. Prime Minister Narendra Modi raised the slogan of CM Yogi and said if we remain united we will be safe, but Mahayutri leaders and former chief ministers Ashok Chavan, Ajit Pawar and Pakanja Munde disagreed with the slogan Keep your distance and make it clear that they object to the slogan. yes. Maharashtra does not believe this.

Following the statement by the Mahayuthi leader, current Deputy Chief Minister and BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis had to come up with a clarification. He said these leaders did not understand the meaning of the slogan as it was a response to Maha Vikas Aghadi’s propaganda. Its message is to unite. The party does not discriminate against any religion and does not discriminate against Muslims.

Ajit Pawar was the first to object to this slogan

Let us tell you that Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi raised the slogan of Batenge to Katenge and then first it was Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister and NCP Chairman Ajit Pawar who opposed the slogan and made it clear that he was against Batenge to Katenge as Ma Harashtra should prosper which was the land of Shahu and Ambedkar. Maharashtra did not accept such a thing before and will not accept it now.

Later, BJP leader Pankaj Munde issued a statement. Maharashtra does not need the slogan “Batenge to Katenge”, he said. Honestly, his political views are different. She cannot support it just because she belongs to the party that came up with the slogan. He believed they should only focus on development.

Pankaja Munde and Ashok Chavan also remixed the track

Ashok Chavan, a BJP lawmaker and former chief minister of Maharashtra, also spoke out against the party’s “if you divide, you will divide” rhetoric. He said the slogan was not good, irrelevant and people would not like it. Ashok Chavan also said that he does not pay much attention to the rhetoric of “vote jihad-Dharam Yudh” as the policies of the BJP and the ruling Mahayutthi are for the development of the country and Maharashtra.

Ashok Chavan said the slogan had no meaning. Slogans are given during elections. It’s a bad slogan and I don’t think people will like it. The BJP leader said every political officer must take a decision after careful consideration. We also have to make sure no one’s feelings are hurt. Let us tell you, Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister and BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis had said last week that “vote jihad” should be countered with “Dharma-Yudh” votes .

Devendra Fadnavis clarified this and said

On the other hand, Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister and senior BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis clarified the “Batenge to Katenge” statement and said that The party’s “Batenge to Katenge” slogan was a response to the MVA movement.

He claimed that even his colleagues Ashok Chavan, Pankaja Munde and Ajit Pawar did not understand the meaning of the slogan. The basic purpose of this slogan is to promote unity and unite everyone. This is not to say that his party is anti-Muslim. His government is trying to bring everyone along, asking the girls if the sisterhood program is inappropriate for Muslim women? Doesn’t this apply to them? In fact, this was a response to Maha Vikas Aghadi’s appeasement policy.

Is the BJP in trouble for making any statement?

There are rumors in political circles that the People’s Party is in trouble ahead of the general election after opposition from the leaders of allied parties, and the party leader must clarify this. NCP leader Ajit Pawar feared the announcement could hit his Muslim voters. He therefore distanced himself from the statement, while other leaders said it sent the wrong message among Dalit, tribal and Maratha communities. This could have an adverse reaction to the election.
