Ahead of the counting day, SP chief Akhilesh Yadav on Friday said due to the alertness of the INDIA bloc, voters, supporters, workers, officials, leaders, candidates, entire PDA community and some honest media persons, the BJP was on a backfoot in these bypolls.
Yadav warned that a new and troubling form of democracy was emerging in Uttar Pradesh under the BJP rule.
A day after polling concluded for nine assembly by-elections, Samajwadi Party (SP) President Akhilesh Yadav wrote a letter on Thursday thanking the people of Uttar Pradesh for maintaining their morale despite alleged administrative pressure during voting.
“Earlier, engines were colliding; now, even the coaches of the so-called ‘double-engine government’ are clashing. After the Maharashtra elections, their own people will undermine the foundations of those who raised hollow slogans,” he remarked.
He said that those who gave the slogan 'One Nation, One Election' are now unable to even conduct a single examination, despite promising to hold record examinations.
He said, "BJP is so upset with the crushing defeat in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections that it is bent on taking revenge from the voters."
Having stunned all with a formidable performance in the recently held Lok Sabha elections, the Samajwadi Party is brainstorming to select suitable candidates for the upcoming by-election for 10 assembly seats in Uttar Pradesh.
He said that these arrests are a conspiracy in themselves and there should be an immediate judicial inquiry into how these arrests were made.
The Samajwadi Party chief warned the Yogi Government in UP that it can’t escape its responsibility for the catastrophic tragedy.
Describing the Hathras tragedy as very painful in a statement on Wednesday, he conveyed his condolences to the families of the deceased.
