New Delhi: At the Maha Kumbh Mela in 2025 in Prayagraj, renowned ‘kathavachak’ Devkinandan Thakur made a controversial statement regarding Pakistan and opposition parties in India. He called Pakistan as the root cause of India’s problems, saying that the nation’s issues would remain unresolved until Pakistan is addressed.
He boldly said that if he were made the Prime Minister of Pakistan for six months, he would appoint leaders from all political parties in India as Prime Ministers of Pakistan for one month each, as part of a strategy to resolve the situation.
Thakur criticizes Kejriwal, Pakistan
Thakur also criticised Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal for his move to provide salaries to maulanas, asking why he did not remember Hindu priests in the process. He pointed out that making false promises without fulfilling them was futile. He continued to elaborate on his views about Pakistan, saying that it was the root cause of all the country’s problems and argued that a love for Pakistan among some people was detrimental. He further said that Hinduism and Sanatan should be prioritised in India, as Sanatanis have the first right to the countr after considerations for other religions.
Thakur strongly criticised at previous governments, particularly saying the formation of the Waqf Board after the creation of Pakistan. He accused these governments of betraying the Sanatan cause by allowing the Waqf Board to control land rights.
Thakur praises Yogi, Modi for change
He also took aim at Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath, saying that only a ruler who understood both religion and politics could lead the nation effectively. He said that only those who established the Sanatan Board could deliver justice to Hindus and that they hoped PM Modi and CM Yogi would bring positive changes after the Kumbh.
In a sharp reaction to incidents like “spit jihad,” Thakur condemned disrespect towards the Ganga-Yamuna and questioned the behaviour of non-Hindus at religious events. Referring to Mohan Bhagwat’s comments on Mathura and Kashi, Thakur said that if the government returned these places to Hindus, further discussions could take place.
