"Congress doesn't want support of Hindus" alleges Congress leader Acharya Pramod Krishnam
Nov 10, 2023
Ghaziabad (Uttar Pradesh) [India], November 10 : Congress leader and spiritual guru Acharya Pramod has attacked the Congress leadership for taking what he calls is an 'Anti-Hindu' stand. This he feels is one of the reasons for him not being asked to join the party campaign in Madhya Pradesh.
"There is no reason to be upset. Maybe they (the party leadership) don't want the support of Hindus and maybe they find some flaw in the motive of appointing a Hindu guru as a star campaigner. This is a decision of the party. I have felt that there are some leaders in Congress who hate Lord Ram. These leaders also hate the word 'Hindu', they want to insult Hindu religious gurus. They don't like that there should be a Hindu religious guru in the party" Acharya Pramod Krishnam said in an exclusive interview with ANI.
Acharya Krishnam also raised serious questions on the opposition INDIA alliance and said "I think there is no such thing as INDIA Bloc left."
"The main goals of making INDIA Bloc was to defeat PM Modi and de-throne the BJP government. But the sad thing is that the opposition hates Modi so much that they forget that they have started hating India. If PM Modi inaugurates a new Parliament then they oppose it, if the train is named 'Vande Bharat' then they oppose it. No one stops you from criticizing the PM, but it is not right to hate him. The opposition has become so confused that it has forgotten everything" Acharya Krishnam said.
He further said that nobody in the INDIA Bloc is criticizing the comments made by Bihar CM Nitish Kumar on women in the state Assembly and It would be a mistake if we keep blaming BJP and Modi for everything.
"The opposition wants to blame all its mistakes on Modi. Akhilesh is saying that Congress is the most deceitful party. Is he saying this at the behest of Modi ji? Will Modi also be blamed for Nitish Kumar's statement? No leader of the INDIA bloc is asking Nitish why did you say this?" Acharya Pramod said.
"For 10 years we just kept doing this... there was dust on our faces and we kept cleaning the mirror. (10 baras tak hum bus ye khata karte rahe... Dhul chehre par thi aur aayena saaf karte rahe)", he added.
"I feel that there is nothing left called INDIA bloc. Akhilesh Yadav says that Congress has cheated the SP. AAP is pointing fingers at Congress. Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury points a finger at Mamata Banerjee," he further added.
Speaking on speculations about him joining the BJP, Acharya Pramod said that if one talks about Bharat, Sanatana, it does not mean that he wants to join the BJP. "The question is not about BJP and Congress, the question is about India's culture and civilization," he said.
Expressing his happiness at the construction of the Ram Mandir, Acharya Pramod said that it was a sign of good luck and after the prayers of crores of people, that Ram Lalla's temple will be made.
He also claimed that in Congress, Priyanka Gandhi is the strongest candidate for the PM's post.
"If Congress wants to give competition to Narendra Modi then it is necessary to make Priyanka Gandhi its candidate and that would be better. The 2024 election will be 'Mahabharat'. Rahul Gandhi has now risen above these things. He no longer desires any position. From the point of view of credibility and acceptance, I think there is no bigger leader than Priyanka at this time," Acharya Pramod added.
