Mainpuri (Uttar Pradesh) [India], November 23 (ANI): Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Thursday slammed the Bharatiya Janata Party for banning Halal products and accused them of creating a rift between communities.
Akhilesh Yadav said "The BJP is always doing such activities of spreading hate and creating differences. The basic questions are unemployment and price rise. They are discussing another topic. This is their strategy to create a rift between communities. The people understand that all of this is happening under a conspiracy."
Earlier, the UP government, in a decisive step against the illegal issuance of 'Halal Certificates', came out with an order forbidding the production, storage, distribution, and sale of food products with Halal certification with immediate effect.

"I am sure that the BJP will lose the elections in 5 states. In MP, wherever SP has campaigned, our vote percentage will increase," added the SP Chief.
Meanwhile, BJP leader Giriraj Singh thanked Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath for the investigation on 'Halal Products' and said that India is not in Pakistan and that Islamic Law will prevail here.
Giriraj Singh told ANI "I feel that in the name of 'Halal' products, the 'Islamikaran' of the markets in the country is happening. The Jizya tax is being collected. I would like to thank the Yogi government for starting the investigation on this. I said to Bihar's CM that you gave too much knowledge in Vidhan Sabha, now put control on this too, so that there is peace in Bihar. Is India in Pakistan, that Islamic law will prevail here? Congress and INDI Alliance have promoted this law for the sake of votes."
According to the official release, strict legal measures will be implemented against any individual or firm engaged in the production, storage, distribution, buying, and selling of Halal-certified medicines, medical devices, and cosmetics within Uttar Pradesh. However, products manufactured for export will not be subject to the restrictions. (ANI)
