“BJP (Bhartiya Janta Party) and RSS (Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh) is controlling the nation, all institutions are controlled by them, there is dictatorship in India. Ministers are denied entry in Uttar Pradesh as section 144 is imposed but Section 144 only denies 5 people at a place then why are solo ministers denied entry?”

Farmers’ rights are being taken away.”
He further attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi by saying that he visited Lucknow but not Lakhimpur, “Prime Minister was in Lucknow but didn’t visit Lakhinmpur, post moterm is not done properly.”
