Panchkula, December 7

Pravin Togadia, president of the Antarrashtriya Hindu Parishad (AHP), while giving the slogan of “Abki Baar Hindu Sarkar” (this time Hindu government), said his party, which would be constituted in January, would contest on all Lok Sabha seats in the forthcoming Parliamentary elections.

Togadia, who was here to hold a meeting with his party workers, lashed out at the BJP government in the Centre. He said Prime Minister Narendra Modi had failed to fulfil the aspirations of people, who had chosen him to build the Ram temple.

He said instead of building the temple, Narendra Modi told them that it was a judicial matter. He said the government had also failed to implement the Swaminathan Committee report, which had recommended increasing the cost of agriculture produce by 50 per cent.

He said farmers continued to commit suicide in the country. The Centre as well as the state government had failed to initiate any steps to provide relief to the farmers.

The Antarrashtriya Hindu Parishad president announced that “if his party came to power, they would issue orders to construct temples at Ayodhya, Kashi and Mathura”.

Togadia said the BJP had failed on every front, including Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir. He said Prime Minister Narendra Modi had given support to Mehbooba Mufti, alleged supporter of separatists in the 

Valley, instead of initiating steps to resettle lakhs of Kashmiri Pandits, who had been forced to leave the Valley.
