Speaking to media persons on the sidelines of an event here Maharaj praised Modi saying the Opposition was scared by the programmes and policies implemented by him, so, in Parliament, whenever, he tries to speak about the development of the country, they create disruptions.
On Indo-Pak talks, he said, "If the PM talks to Pakistan they (the Opposition) have a problem and if he doesn't, then they have a problem too."
Attacking the opposition leaders, the BJP MP said that Mulayam Singh Yadav, Nitish Kumar, Mamata Banerjee and (Arvind) Kejriwal are a danger to the nation. On cow slaughter, he said the BJP-ruled state are making strict laws against the practice.
Slamming the critics for accusing the BJP government of being "intolerant", he said, after Bihar Assembly elections these people have gone in silence.
He also claimed that one lakh Muslims from MP have favoured the construction of Ram temple in Ayodhya and also put their signature to it. "If people of the country want Ram Mandir to be built at Ayodhya then what is the controversy," he said.
