Mainpuri bypoll : SP will play emotional card, don’t get misled: Yogi

Mainpuri bypoll : SP will play emotional card, don’t get misled: Yogi

Mainpuri, Nov 28 (UNI) Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Monday said that Samajwadi Party (SP) founder Mulayam Singh Yadav once said that only Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) will win and the party had won the Azamgarh and Rampur Lok Sabha seat due to his blessings.
He said, "You have another opportunity to realise Netaji’s (Mulayam) dream by ensuring BJP’s victory in by-poll for Mainpuri Lok Sabha seat and script a new history."
Addressing a huge election rally for the bypoll for Mainpuri LS seat in Karhal assembly segment, represented by SP chief Akhilesh Yadav, Yogi said, "They (SP) will try to play an emotional card, but don’t get misled by them.
Socialism and secularism are empty slogans for SP, which treats politics as a family business."
He said, "They have nothing to do with development or welfare and prosperity of people. They can’t stand with you during a crisis. They were nowhere to be seen during the coronavirus. All they are interested in is their own as well as their families’ interests."
Yogi said, "That’s why they never built houses and toilets for the poor and instead built palaces for themselves. They never bothered to provide jobs to the youth, security to the people and support to the farmers.
The uncle-nephew nexus used to run an extortion racket through advertisement of vacancies."
Taking a jibe at Shivpal Yadav, he said, "He has become something like a pendulum or a football that gets kicked by both teams. We saw how last time he was insulted on the stage by denying him a chair and had to sit on the armrest of a chair."
Urging people to become part of the larger BJP family instead of dynastic politicians, the Chief Minister said that the BJP government alone has the intention, dedication and commitment to improve people’s lives through development projects and welfare schemes.
He said, "We are building houses and toilets for people. We are providing ration to 15 crore people. During the pandemic, we provided free tests, treatment and vaccines to people. We are providing an annual pension of Rs 12000 to the old, widows, destitute women and differently-abled."
Yogi said that during SP’s rule the state was under the control of the land and mining mafias, which were nurtured by the party. "But we are dealing strictly with the mafia. We have seized properties worth hundreds of crores of the mafia and are getting houses built on them for the poor. We are providing security to people," he said.
The Chief Minister said, "When the NDA Government headed by Narendra Modi took over in 2014, the PM gave the slogan of Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, which means development and welfare of all, but discrimination and appeasement of none and the party has strictly followed this dictum in discharging its duties."
Seeking votes for Raghuraj Singh Shakya, a former SP MP and a close aide of Mulayam Singh Yadav and Shivpal Yadav, who is pitted against Akhilesh's Dimple Yadav, Yogi said that development of Mainpuri can gain momentum if the local leadership is also from the BJP.
