Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Monday emphasized the importance of national unity, referencing the ongoing unrest in Bangladesh.
"Nothing is more important than the nation, and the nation will only be strong if we stand united. 'If we divide, we perish.' You can see what's happening in Bangladesh. We must not repeat those mistakes here. 'If we divide, we perish; if we stay united, we thrive,'" Adityanath stated during a public meeting in Agra.
His remarks follow his criticism of the opposition for their 'silence' regarding the attacks on Hindus in Bangladesh. "The opposition is quick to comment on global issues but remains noticeably silent about the persecution of Hindus and the destruction of temples in Bangladesh. They speak about Palestine but ignore Bangladesh because they fear losing their vote bank," he remarked in Mathura.
The UP Chief Minister's comments come in the wake of reports of unrest in Bangladesh, where the country plunged into a political crisis on August 5 following the resignation and departure of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
