'Indonesian President's Indian DNA Remark An Eye-Opener For Those Idolising Invaders': Yogi
Yogi Adityanath cited Indonesian President's "Indian DNA" remark and said that his statement was an "eye-opener" for those considering the foreign invaders their ideal.
Amid the ongoing Aurangzeb row, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Sunday said that there can be no place for those “who hated India and Indianness" and also for the one “who cannot respect the great men of the country".
“I say it again that one who cannot respect the great men and freedom fighters of the country, there can be no place for that person," said Adityanath speaking at Bithur Mahotsav in Kanpur.

“Those who were invaders, those who attacked the faith of India, those who hated India and Indianness, those who tried to harm the honour of the sisters and daughters of India, those who trampled on the eternal culture of India, those who were crushing the faith of India can never be ideal for India, they can never be ideal for the citizens of India," he added.
He further cited Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto’s “Indian DNA" remark during his visit to India earlier this year and said that his statement was an “eye-opener" for those considering invaders their ideals. He also urged such people to reconsider their stance.
“The president of Indonesia says that if our DNA is ever tested, it will turn out to be Indian. Indonesia is the largest Muslim majority country in the world and this statement of his is an eye-opener for those who consider foreign invaders as their ideal in India," Yogi said.
He also recalled great Indian personalities in history and called for respect towards them.
“I believe that after this statement, those people will also have a feeling of respect for Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, Maharana Pratap, Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj, and these great warriors of India, the great revolutionaries of great India and will contribute to making India great," he said.
