Union Minister Visits Injured Dalit Activist
Hyderabad: Union Minister of State for Home Affairs, Bandi Sanjay Kumar, visited the family of Nanduraj, a Dalit activist who was injured during a recent attack on the BJP state office. The Minister met Nanduraj at his residence in Bahadurpura, located in the Old City, to check on his health.
During the meeting, Nanduraj shared details of his injuries, explaining that he had suffered a head injury and undergone medical treatment. Bandi Sanjay expressed his concern, wished him a speedy recovery, and inquired further about the attack.
Bandi Sanjay Slams Congress Over Violence
Speaking to reporters afterward, Bandi Sanjay strongly criticized Congress leaders, accusing them of resorting to violence. He claimed that BJP workers were attacked in broad daylight with iron rods, stones, eggs, and sticks while the police stood by as mere spectators.
“This behavior is shameful,” he said. “The Congress government is clearly encouraging these attacks because they cannot tolerate the BJP exposing their corruption and misdeeds. Governments are supposed to protect people, not support such violence. How appropriate is it for the government and police to allow this to happen?” he questioned.
Warning Against Provocation
The Union Minister emphasized that the BJP is a party built on the sacrifices of its workers for the nation, people, and dharma. He warned Congress leaders not to mistake the patience of BJP workers for weakness.
“If our workers decide, Gandhi Bhavan (Congress headquarters) won’t even have its foundations left. Congress leaders won’t be able to step out,” he cautioned.
However, he made it clear that the BJP would not be intimidated by these attacks and threats. “We will continue to expose the failures of the Congress-led state government and fight for justice for the people,” he concluded firmly.
