Lucknow News: It was the afternoon to intensify the beats of Lucknow. The walls of Atal Bihari Vajpayee Scientific Convention Center were not meditating today, but with fire. The sound of a face climbing on the stage was echoing, which neither fear of power nor fear of conspiracies. If he says, it seems as if a revolution is knocking. Chandrashekhar Azad, MP from Nagina and national president of Azad Samaj Party Kashiram, when he spoke on the land of Lucknow – it felt like a new sun is going to rise for Dalits, backward and Muslims.
‘This is not just a dialogue… it is a fire of movement’
The name of the program was ‘Muslim dialogue’, but the words that came out of the stage were not just the matter, but the rebellion was announced. Chandrashekhar Azad did not raise the slogan, but set fire … in the system, in the thinking that is trying to crush the rights of minorities. He clearly said that Muslims are being made Shudras in the country, their religious freedom is being taken away. On the one hand, they pour flowers with a helicopter for the kawandis and on the other hand, if a Muslim offers prayers on the road, then an FIR is done. This statement not only shaken the corridors of power, but also shook the hearts of millions of people who feel themselves marginalized today.
‘Not to smile, there is a watch to fight’
Chandrasekhar’s voice was painful, but even more anger. He said, ‘No one can smile today. The one who is not with power has been destroyed. There is no one left for Yadav, Kurmi, Lodhi, Sahu. Everyone is being exploited. He made a clear announcement from the stage that the time has come when Dalits, backward and Muslims together form a political alliance, ‘This is not the slogan, not. He said that because now we are being killed one by one and if we still do not wake up then history will question us.
Barber and tea shops closed in Dhampur… What kind of justice?
In his speech, Chandrashekhar launched a scathing attack on the Yogi government of Uttar Pradesh. He asked that the Chief Minister should tell why the shops of Muslims in Dhampur were closed? These were not meat shops, they were tea and barber shops. This question was not only from the administration, it was from the whole society whether the employment will also be decided by religion? Will religion be seen to sell tea now?
‘Our fight is with the constitution, not with power’
Chandrashekhar also clarified that his fight is not with any religion, any party or any person, but from the thinking that keeps the Constitution on hold. He said that those who have given us the rights, they are going to snatch and if we keep silent, then this silence will become our grave. He appealed to the youth that you do not just want a job, you also want respect and that honor is not from anyone’s bailout but from the fight of rights.
What will be the new alliance with Chandrashekhar’s shout?
The question that was echoing in the air at the end of the program was whether Chandrashekhar Azad would be able to unite Dalit, Muslim and backward sections? Is this Muslim dialogue beginning a big political movement? Will the key of power now go to the hands of the underprivileged? There was not only a speech in this dialogue, but the script of the future. A script that may perhaps completely change the political equations of 2027. Now it remains to be seen how far this voice of Chandrashekhar goes and will they be able to become the face of the revolution to unite the marginalized people of the country to reach the center of power?
