Jhajjar/New Delhi, 30 (NationPress) Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath emphasized the need for vigilance against any external entities attempting to undermine Sanatan Dharma and called upon the saints to actively oppose religious conversion, love jihad, and narcotics during a gathering in Jhajjar, Haryana.
Speaking at the idol consecration ceremony and grand ‘Aathman’ Bhandara, he highlighted the importance of remaining aware of anti-Sanatan forces echoing sentiments from the nation’s past when foreign invasions were prevalent. He asserted that protecting the essence of Sanatan Dharma is vital for the safety of India and humanity as a whole.
“We must avoid division… as it leads to our downfall. History shows that division can have disastrous consequences. We should not allow ourselves to be fragmented based on caste, appeasement, region, or language,” he stated.
CM Yogi expressed that just as the Dharma flag proudly flutters over Shri Ram Janmabhoomi in Ayodhya, the flag of Sanatan Dharma should also be visible at every Sanatani's residence.
He acknowledged the progress of the state under the double-engine Haryana government, setting new standards in development.
Additionally, he warned that drug traffickers are harming society from within and urged collective action to protect the youth from substance abuse.
“We must remain cautious to avoid falling into this trap, or else future generations will hold us accountable,” he remarked.
The Chief Minister further called on saints and seers to vocally oppose religious conversion, love jihad, and drugs at every religious gathering.
“Any action that undermines our present and steers future generations toward darkness is intolerable; we must counter such forces,” he insisted.
CM Yogi described the significant turnout at the Bhandara in Kablana village as extraordinary, memorable, and impactful, stating that such gatherings in the Nath tradition offer a chance to honor the deity, express gratitude, and foster unity.
He referred to the saffron flag hoisting on November 25 as a triumph for Sanatan, affirming, “When we unite in thought, speech, and action, victory follows. Where there is Dharma, there is success.”
Furthermore, he noted that for the first time, the country’s Prime Minister visited Ayodhya to initiate temple construction personally. The consecration of the idol of Bhagwan Shri Ram last year showcased India's splendor to the world.
On November 25, the saffron Dharma Dhwaj, once again raised atop the Ram Temple, symbolizes Sanatan pride.
“This saffron flag signifies that the path of truth and Dharma remains steadfast and unyielding. Dharma will prevail, and we must adhere to this path resolutely,” he concluded.
