The MP made the statement on Saturday, when he voted for the UP Legislative Council elections here.
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is "working on his own terms" and his government "isn’t doing justice with the Muslims", he said.
He put his own party in the dock, saying the Samajwadi Party is "not working for the Muslims".
Barq has been in the news for his statements in the past as well.
In August last year, his statement over Taliban had triggered a row.
"Taliban is a force and did not allow the US to settle in Afghanistan. It wants to free its country. This is their personal matter," he had said.
