Kanpur: Samajwadi Party (SP) president Akhilesh Yadav on Friday alleged that “it was not the magic of Prime Minister Narendra Modi by which the BJP won Bihar Assembly polls as is being claimed.”
“It was not Modi’s magic as is being claimed, but the magic of dishonesty that helped BJP win Bihar Assembly polls. After trailing Mahagathbandhan in the first round of counting, all of a sudden they (BJP) started taking the lead. Same was with us here in UP, wherein votes were arranged at the behest of official machinery,” alleged Akhilesh in Kakore village in Auraiya while paying tributes to Mulayam Singh Yadav, member of Legislative Council and veteran Samajwadi Party leader, who had passed away recently.
He further said that the BJP is very expert in repackaging. “Everybody knows in whose regime development has happened and at present who is doing repackaging of our party’s schemes,” he added.
Talking about the 2022 assembly elections in UP, Akhilesh said, “We will fight the 2022 poll with a proper strategy. AIMIM can field its candidate from here too, but it won’t be able to make any difference and SP will form the next government on its own in UP.”
