BJP MP Dharmapuri Arvind has said the ‘friendship’ between BRS and MIM adversely affected the interests of Muslims.
The BRS government did not implement the `5 lakh Ayushman Bharat insurance scheme and the `2 lakh Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana scheme in Telangana, he pointed out.This meant a loss of `7 lakh to each Muslim family in the state, he said.
He said, “The BJP will not indulge in the appeasement politics but it is committed to giving equal rights to Muslims alongside those from other religions.”
Speaking to the media, Arvind said, “The BJP is ready to serve the Muslims if they vote for our party’s symbol Lotus.‘If you do not wish to vote for the BJP, you should mark the ‘None of the Above” (Nota) option in the ballot paper,” he suggested to Muslims.
He said the Congress and the BRS used Muslims as their vote bank, but failed to financially empower the community.Triple Talak, Article 370, CAA proved that the BJP government does not want to harm the Muslim community, he claimed.
Arvind said that Uniform Civil Code (UCC) would come into being soon and it would benefit Muslims too.“I am ready to serve the Muslims, but no one came forward to get at least the MPLADS funds from me,”, he said.
The Gulf countries, especially Saudi Arabia, accorded respect to Prime Minister Modi, he said.
