PM Modi building a caste-neutral society, blogs Yogi Adityanath

NEW DELHI: Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath has likened Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Gautam Buddha, Abraham Lincoln, Nelson Mandela and Mahatma Gandhi with respect to efforts made to bring about a change in the society and nation.

Blogging after years, Yogi wrote: “The way Gautam Buddha showed the path of compassion and friendship to help society get rid of wrong practices, Abraham Lincoln got the blacks freed from slavery, Mahatma Gandhi got India freed from the slavery of the British and Nelson Mandela got his nation freed from apartheid, in the same manner Narendra Modi has got us freedom from wrong practices like casteism, dynasty and appeasement and laid a strong foundation of a ‘New India’. The people are with him.”

He said this was reflected in the recent Lok Sabha results where people rejected those who did politics of caste and communal appeasement.


Modi has laid the foundation of a “caste-neutral India” and there is no difference between his words and deeds.

“The way rays of the Sun fall on all, Modi government's schemes have benefited all. PM Modi is a politician with an even sight and vision—neither appeasement nor separation. Prominent global leaders are fans of his governance style,” Adityanath has written.

His other recent blogs, the first he has written this month after becoming the chief Minister in 2017, focus on Yoga, his government's achievements which he laid before the NITI Aayog in New Delhi.
