जेयूसीएस ने चुनाव आयोग की शुचिता पर उठाए सवाल, कहा आयोग कर रहा साम्प्रदायिक...

By TCN News, लखनऊ : पिछले दिनों मीडिया में आए वीडियो पर योगी आदित्यनाथ ने आरोप लगाया कि इसके पीछे नक्सलवादी ताकतों की साज़िश है. इसके बाद वीडियो के मूल स्रोत डाक्यूमेंट्री फिल्म ‘सैफ्रन वार’ के निर्माता-निदेशक सदस्यों ने इसे उल-जलूल हरकत करार देते हुए फिल्म में उठाए गए दलितों के हिन्दूकरण, महिला हिंसा, देश विरोधी विदेशी संगठनों से योगी के गठजोड़ और राष्ट्रपिता महात्मा गांधी की हत्या में इस राजनीति की भूमिका से ध्यान हटाने की कोशिश बताया. डॉक्यूमेंट्री फिल्मकार शाहनवाज़ आलम, राजीव यादव और लक्ष्मण प्रसाद ने कहा कि योगी आदित्यनाथ वीडियो को कभी अपना तो कभी कट- पेस्ट बता रहे हैं, लेकिन हमने पहले भी मीडिया द्वारा इस बात को संज्ञान में लाया है कि इस वीडियो के मूल स्रोत को न्यायालय से लेकर चुनाव आयोग सभी को सौंपा जा चुका है. लेकिन सरकार योगी पर किसी भी कार्यवाही के बजाय मुद्दे को सिर्फ चुनावी रणनीति की तरह देख रही है. योगी आदित्यनाथ भी इस अनदेखी का पूरा लाभ उठा रहे है. इस मामले में कोई भी कार्यवाही न करके चुनाव आयोग अपनी जवाबदेही से तो बच ही रहा है, साथ ही योगी को बचाने वाले अपने अधिकारियों को भी बचाने की कोशिश में लगा हुआ है.
