Mosque at Nishadraj Fort ‘illegal’, should be removed: Minister Sanjay Nishad

He also claimed that barring a few Muslim leaders, a majority of the minority community wanted the Ram Temple to be built in Ayodhya. “What (Prime Minister Narendra) Modiji has done for the country is exemplary. We are the fifth largest economy. Nine years ago, we were tenth. We are leading the G20. There is no religion, no community for which Modiji has not worked,” he said, adding that his party would contest the next year’s Lok Sabha elections in alliance with the BJP.

The Nishad Party, which has six MLAs in the UP Vidhan Sabha, had contested the 2022 Assembly elections in alliance with the BJP.

Admitting that the country is facing high inflation, Nishad claimed it was an “international issue”. “The Opposition leaders, who are now talking of inflation, ruined our economy when they were in power,” he said.
