Reacting to the rapid-paced developments in Samajwadi Party, the BJP on Friday said that the people of Uttar Pradesh had already waved Akhilesh Yadav off, and that “his expulsion doesn’t have much impact”.
Making light of the apparent breaking of the ruling SP in UP, BJP national secretary Shrikant Sharma said, “In family-centred parties, if the family breaks up, the party also falls apart”. He said Akhilesh has already been discredited on account of his regime and “his expulsion doesn’t have much impact”.
He termed the infighting in the SP as a “scripted drama” to divert people’s attention from the “all-round failures” of the Akhilesh Yadav Government.
“Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav has betrayed the people of Uttar Pradesh with the all-round failures of his government. He has not fulfilled any promise. People are feeling betrayed. What is happening in SP is a scripted drama to divert people’s attention,” Sharma said.
People had voted for the SP in 2012 as they were angry with the Mayawati Government over poor law and order and development but it has also let them down, he said, blaming Yadav for “deteriorating law and order” as his portfolios includes the Home Ministry.
Voters will not fall in this trap this time, Sharma said, adding that they have made up their mind to vote for BJP. “There is a wave in our support,” he claimed.
