Some parties ashamed to call Sep 17 Hyderabad Liberation Day: Amit Shah
Without naming anyone, he asked these parties to remove the fear from their minds, saying Razakars cannot take decisions in this country which became independent 75 years ago. Amit Shah made the remarks after hoisting the national flag and reviewing a parade at Parade Grounds in Secunderabad to mark erstwhile Hyderabad state's accession to the Indian Union.
Going forward, Gyanvapi promises to become a big part of BJP agenda
From Union Minister Giriraj Singh to Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan and Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya, as well as many veteran BJP leaders, hailed the judgment which was clearly evident with reverberating chants of Lord Shiva made by them. This shows that how significant this issue is politically for the BJP.

The opposition parties, particularly those in Uttar Pradesh, are unable to take a stand on the issue. If they back the Hindu petitioners, they will lose out on Muslim support, and if they side with the Muslims, they will be dubbed 'anti-Hindu'. The Samajwadi Party, which is the main opposition party in Uttar Pradesh, has avoided taking a clear stand on the Varanasi verdict on the Gyanvapi controversy though Akhilesh Yadav has been accusing the BJP of stoking communal issues for electoral gains.
Congress steers clear of Gyanvapi, says it's a diversionary tactic
Congress leaders when approached refused to speak and said that our priorities are different from that of the BJP. The people are groaning under inflation and unemployment which are the real issues. The Bharat Jodo Yatra is to bridge the gap between the different faiths and overcome the hatred propagated by the BJP-RSS, they added.
