Uttar Pradesh’s sweeping madrasa investigation, ordered by CM Yogi Adityanath, faces scathing condemnation from Maharashtra Congress stalwart Hussain Dalwai, who sees it as a targeted assault on Muslims disguised as financial oversight. Dalwai insists any foreign funding probe must begin with RSS branches and opulent temples, which funnel in crores from overseas without question.
Painting a vivid picture, Dalwai described madrasas as lifelines for destitute children, sustained by heartfelt community aid during joyous occasions like Eid. ‘It’s heartwarming how Muslims uplift the needy—yet this goodness is now under siege,’ he remarked.
The selective outrage baffles Dalwai: why probe modest madrasas while ignoring RSS and temple treasuries bloated with foreign cash? He alleged it’s a ploy to perpetually antagonize Muslims, inciting Hindus to secure votes, much like tactics against Christians in Assam.
Dalwai spotlighted UP’s underdevelopment, blaming it for the exodus of laborers to Maharashtra, enduring exploitative work conditions due to homeland neglect. On interfaith marriages and conversions, he advocated personal liberty, condemning coercion but decrying manufactured controversies.
Defending Rahul Gandhi from ‘traitor’ slurs by BJP’s Ravneet Bittu, Dalwai accused the government of true betrayal through anti-farmer pacts with the US. He criticized PM Modi’s yielding to Trump on tariffs, foreseeing ruin for Indian exports and growers.
Dalwai concluded that such provocations—from madrasa raids to faith-based fearmongering—reek of cynical vote harvesting, prioritizing division over India’s inclusive growth.
