History Records Not Just Speeches, but Silences Too – Dr. Rajeshwar Singh
Lucknow: Sarojini Nagar MLA and senior BJP leader Dr. Rajeshwar Singh, through a series of messages on the social media platform X, raised serious questions over the political credibility, moral courage, and public accountability of the Congress and the Samajwadi Party. He stated that parties which, while in power, were associated with policy-driven corruption, administrative failures, and environmental degradation have no moral authority today to lecture the nation on ethics, the Constitution, or good governance.
*Recalling Congress’s Scams:*
Referring to the Congress’s tenure, Dr. Rajeshwar Singh pointed out that the 2G spectrum allocation, cancellation of coal block allocations, the Commonwealth Games scam, the AgustaWestland helicopter deal, the Adarsh Housing case, the INX Media matter, and cash-for-votes inside Parliament are not political allegations. These are part of CAG reports, Supreme Court judgments, and the public record of constitutional institutions. He asserted that political memory cannot be selective and that the nation runs not on amnesia, but on accountability.
*SP Rule: Weak Governance and Political Patronage for Corruption:*
Continuing his critique, Dr. Rajeshwar Singh questioned the state of environmental governance during the Samajwadi Party’s rule in Uttar Pradesh. He said that illegal sand mining, tampering with river floodplains, untreated sewage and industrial waste being discharged into rivers such as the Ganga, Gomti, Yamuna, and Hindon, large-scale tree felling, and weak action against polluters were not coincidences. They were outcomes of policy neglect and a politics of protection.
He emphasized that environmental damage was not accidental but the product of weak governance and political patronage. Parties that shielded corruption and environmental destruction, he said, must introspect before preaching morality to the nation.
*Opposition’s Silence on Terror Attacks Is Inhuman:*
In his messages, Dr. Rajeshwar Singh also strongly reacted to the silence of Congress and Samajwadi Party leadership on the terror attack at Bondi Beach in Sydney, Australia. He asked why their sensitivities fell silent when 15 innocent people were killed and dozens injured during an attack around the Hanukkah celebrations. Terrorism, he said, must be condemned immediately, unconditionally, and universally, not based on religion, geography, or vote-bank calculations.
Dr. Singh stated unequivocally that this silence reflects not sensitivity but selective conscience, vote-bank politics, and moral bankruptcy. When victims do not fit political equations, empathy disappears—and this opportunistic politics weakens national unity and moral leadership.
*Silence Against Sanatan Culture Is a Political Stand :*
Speaking on Sanatan Dharma and India’s civilizational identity, Dr. Rajeshwar Singh asked when Rahul Gandhi or Akhilesh Yadav clearly acknowledged Sanatan Dharma as the civilizational soul of India. When did they unequivocally, by name, condemn attacks on Hindu temples, the erosion of temple culture, or the open propagation of religious extremism? He said that temple visits and rituals may be matters of personal faith, but silence on Sanatan, temple culture, and Hindu institutions is a political stand.
When power becomes supreme, morality is rebranded as “balance,” clarity is labelled “polarization,” and silence is marketed as “mature politics”- and this is where public trust erodes.
Concluding his messages, Dr. Rajeshwar Singh stated that the purpose of politics is not to weigh every issue on the scale of votes, but to protect the nation, society, and the future. The country is no longer silent; it is asking questions. Records are public, and history accounts not only for speeches, but for silences as well.
