Punjab Newsline, Chandigarh-
Haryana’scabinet minister Anil Vij said today that “People should not listen to kathavachaks (religious storytellers) but should instead heed the words of saints — because only saints can speak the ultimate truth, as there is a world of difference between a storyteller and a saint.” Vij was responding to a media persons quations about the difference between kathavachaks and saints.
It’s worth noting that Vij wrote on platform X today:- “kathaavaachak aur sant mein bahut antar hota hai . haal hee mein kathaavaachak aniruddhaachaary ke kaee bayaanon par vivaad khada ho gaya hai . kathaavaachak koee bhee chaar kitaaben padh kar ban jaata hai parantu sant vah hote hain jinhonne dhaarmik, aadhyaatmik ya naitik roop se uchch darja praapt ho.jinhonne aadhyaatmik gyaan praapt kar liya ho aur eeshvar ke saath ekaakaar ho gae hon. logon ko kathaavaachakon ke boleen par dhyaan na dekar santon kee vaanee par amal karana chaahie”.
In his interaction with media personeel, Vij reiterated that “Anyone can become a kathavachak after reading a few books. Just recently, Aniruddhacharya Ji Maharaj gave several controversial statements. But a saint is someone who has gone through penance, renunciation, attained spiritual wisdom, and established a divine connection.”
When asked about Tejashwi Yadav allegedly having two voter ID cards in Bihar, Vij said that “Rahul Gandhi’s bomb fuse blew up after it was revealed that Tejashwi Yadav has two voter ID cards. If Tejashwi has two, their workers probably have hundreds. That’s why I’ve been saying from day one — fake leaders are advocating for fake voters in Bihar.”
He also posted on X today: - “bihaar mein tejasvee yaadav ke do matadaata kaard ujaagar hone se raahul gaandhee ke etam bamb ka phyooj ud gaya hai . yadi tejasvee yaadav ke do do kaard hain to inake kaaryakartaon ke to 100 - 100 kaard bane hue honge . main to pahale din se kah raha hoon ki bihaar mein pharjee neta pharjee matadaataon kee pairavee kar rahe hain “.
No one can be a bigger devotee of BJP than me” – Vij
When asked about his upcoming tour across Haryana starting August 15 and whether it was due to any displeasure, Sh. Vij said that “I am not upset at all. In fact, no one can be a bigger devotee of the Bharatiya Janata Party than me. Duties have been assigned for each of the 42 assembly constituencies.”
Workers from all over Haryana call me, and I will meet them all” – Vij
He added that “I am the most senior BJP MLA in all of Haryana. I have won assembly elections seven times. No one else has come even close. That’s why I look after the entire state.
