Mumbai, May 18: BJP MLA Sanjay Upadhyay has expressed full support for Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu’s appeal for financial assistance for families having a third or fourth child. He emphasized the need for the Hindu community to increase their birth rates to prevent population imbalance.
In a conversation, Upadhyay stated, “We want Hindus to have more children. If the population imbalance continues and the Muslim population grows rapidly, it will change the country’s demographics, impacting national security and character.”
He further commented, “While we adhere to the government’s ‘two children’ policy, there are calls for ‘four and our forty.’ The Andhra Pradesh government’s initiative to provide ₹30,000 for a third child and ₹40,000 for a fourth is commendable.”
Regarding the NEET paper leak controversy, Upadhyay described it as unfortunate but noted that NEET and NTA have significantly reduced the previous corruption in medical admissions. He asserted that some individuals wish to dismantle this process as they are no longer benefiting from corruption.
He called for stricter measures in the NEET process while ensuring it remains accessible for students. Those involved in any wrongdoing should face severe penalties.
Expressing pride in the statement made by Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi regarding Pakistan, Upadhyay said, “All Indians take pride in our army. The Chief’s statement is a source of pride for every Indian. It symbolizes the strength and valor of the Indian Army.”
Upadhyay welcomed the court’s decision in the Bhojshala case, calling it historically significant. He stressed that population policy should be viewed from a national security perspective and urged the Hindu community to understand their social and national responsibilities by having more children and providing them with quality education and values.
