TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Congress leader Mani Shankar Aiyar has joined the protest against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act and National Register of Citizens in Shaheen Bagh and attacked the Bharatiya Janata Party-led central government saying that they fought elections on the promise of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas’, but they did ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vinash’.
“They got the majority in the election because they said we will do ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas’. But what did they do? They did ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vinash,” Aiyar said. He added, “Aap hi ne unko pradhan mantri banaya hai, aap hi unko singhasan se utar sakte ho (You have made him the prime minister, only you can dethrone him)”. He also offered help for the protest, while also making a scathing statement, without taking any names or reference.
Aiyar later went on to say, “Whatever I can do personally for you, I am ready to do that. Jo bhi qurbaniyan deni hon, usme main bhi shaamil hone ko tayaar hun. Ab dekhein ki kiska hath mazboot hai, hamara ya uss (wo) kaatil ka? (Whatever sacrifices need to be given, I am ready for the same. Now let’s see whose hand is strong, ours or that murderer’s?)
