UP elections 2022: Not in politics to grab power, but build nation, says Rajnath Singh
Ballia (Uttar Pradesh), February 22: Ahead of phase four of Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Tuesday said that politics is not just about forming governments but about building societies and the nation.
"We are in politics not just to form governments but to build society and the country. That explains we are not reluctant to take tough decisions," said the Union Minister while addressing a rally in the Sikandarpur area of Ballia.
Singh further said that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will not allow the trust of the people of the country to be broken.
"...carefully weigh the options, assess whether they are right, and then vote." Many political parties have emerged and disappeared over the years. Because of the politicians' misleading claims, there was a political crisis. Politicians had a reputation for being dishonest. But, this notion has been shattered by the BJP," Singh continued.

"We fulfilled our promise to repeal Article 370," he said at a public meeting. The Citizenship Amendment Act was passed in order to keep promises made to the public. Religion should not be used to divide people. Following independence, India and Pakistan were divided in the name of religion," said Singh.
He further added, "We delivered on our commitment to build a majestic Ram temple in Ayodhya. PM Modi gave Kashi Vishwadham a grand look. Ghori demolished the temple of Somnath. It was also redeveloped."
Three phases of the seven-phase UP Assembly elections have been completed. Polling for the remaining phases will take place on February 23, February 27, March 3 and March 7. The counting of votes will take place on March 10.
