BJP calling Purvanchalis as Rohingyas: Arvind Kejriwal

New Indian Express  

NEW DELHI: AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal on Friday alleged that BJP has branded Purvanchalis as ‘Rohingyas’ and ‘Bangladeshis’ and is seeking to disenfranchise voters from the community. Speaking at a press conference, the AAP chief said just two days ago, BJP president JP Nadda made offensive remarks against the ‘Purvanchali’ community during a session in Parliament as he compared the Purvanchalis living in Delhi to Rohingya and Bangladeshis, and further stated that BJP workers were filling out forms to have their names removed from voter lists.” “We strongly condemn this act and regard it as a well-planned conspiracy against an entire community. On the one hand, BJP leaders brand Purvanchalis as Rohingyas and Bangladeshis; on the other, they attempt to strip them of their citizenship,” Kejriwal said. By targeting voter cards, BJP is effectively depriving Purvanchalis of basic services and benefits.” “This is a disgusting and premeditated conspiracy by the BJP, as the majority of Delhi’s Purvanchali community supports the AAP.
