Speaking after the 2022 Uttar Pradesh assembly elections, won by the BJP, Dinesh Rawat, the party’s MLA from Haidergarh said, “Those who have always been with us, supported us this time too. Those who opposed us will continue to oppose us till 2024.”
“I have never respected the opposition and dissentors, nor do I plan to,” he added. “Those who did not vote for BJP should not come to us for any help.”
“Wait till 2024 to vote for the BJP and help Narendra Modi become the prime minister again,” Rawat said. “Until then, we cannot help you.”
