New Delhi, Sep 23: The BJP on Sunday accused Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal of "speaking lies boldly and publicly" and said that he is stalling the development work in the national capital.

The BJP also asked Congress President Rahul Gandhi and Kejriwal to clear thier stand on the issue of illegal immigrants in the country.

Speaking at the Poorvanchal Mahakumbh rally organised here at the Ramlila Maidan, BJP President Amit Shah said: "The Narendra Modi government gave over Rs 50,000 crore to the Delhi government. But look at the promises that you made to people and tell that how many promises have been fulfilled."

"Kejriwal's only mantra is to speak lie, speak it loudly, boldly and publicly," the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) chief said.

Shah said that it seemed the Delhi government lacks vision for the development

Raking up the issue of illegal immigrants, the BJP President said: "There are crores of illegal immigrants who have entered the country. They are making the country hollow from inside. They should be sent back or not? he asked.

Slamming Congress chief, Shah said: "When the NRC (implemented in Assam) issue was being debated in the Parliament, Rahul Gandhi and company started making noise in the House. They raised the issue of the human rights and others. The SP, BSP and AAP also raised objection.

"Why Rahul Gandhi, AAP have issues on illegal immigrants? Because they do vote bank politics. But we don't do that, as for BJP the nation comes first," he said.

Shah also said that after 2019, when the BJP comes back to power those immigrants would be identified.

He also dared Rahul Gandhi and Kejriwal to clear their party's stand on the issue.

The BJP Chief also slammed the opposition leaders for raising objections on the arrest of urban Maoists in Maharashtra.

"When the Maharashtra government arrested those urban naxals the opposition leaders raised objections," he said, adding, they were arrested as they had been involved in anti-national activities.

"The best place for the anti-nationals is behind the bars," he said.

The BJP chief also said that the party would win all the seven Lok Sabha seats in the national capital.

Noida (UP), Apr 26 (PTI): “I was Pakistan’s daughter, but now I’m India’s daughter-in-law,” says Seema Haider as she fears deportation after the government suspended visa services for Pakistani nationals as part of a series of retaliatory steps following the Pahalgam terror attack.

Haider made headlines in 2023 when she left Pakistan to marry her Indian lover, Sachin Meena. She was already married back home in Sindh province but had illegally entered India via Nepal along with her four children.

In a video being shared on social media platforms, Seema says, "I do not want to go to Pakistan. I appeal to PM (Narendra) Modi and UP CM Yogi (Adityanath) to let me stay in India".

Haider claims that she adopted Hinduism after marrying Meena.

Despite the countrywide backlash, her lawyer is hopeful that she will be allowed to live in India, as, he claimed, she was no longer a Pakistani citizen.

"Seema is no longer a Pakistani national. She married Sachin Meena, a resident of Greater Noida, and recently gave birth to their daughter, Bharti Meena. Her citizenship is now connected with her Indian husband, and therefore the Centre's directive should not apply to her," Advocate AP Singh told PTI on Thursday.

“I appeal to Modi ji and Yogi ji that I am in their refuge now. I was Pakistan’s daughter but now I’m the daughter-in-law of India. Let me stay here," Haider said in the video.

In the wake of the Pahalgam terror attack, a Cabinet Committee on Security meeting, chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, took a series of retaliatory steps, including suspension of visa services for Pakistani nationals, on Wednesday.

The Ministry of External Affairs also announced that all valid visas issued to Pakistani nationals will be cancelled effective April 27. Medical visas will remain valid only until April 29. All Pakistani nationals currently in India have been instructed to leave the country before their visa expires.

Haider left her home in Karachi in May, 2023 and came to India. In July, Indian authorities caught her living with Meena in Rabupura area of Uttar Pradesh’s ​​Gautam Buddha Nagar district. The two reportedly came in contact while playing online games in 2019.

At present, the couple lives in Uttar Pradesh's Greater Noida.
