Urging the Election Commission to take note of the statement of BJP leader Uma Bharati threatening to pull down the Samajwadi Party Government, Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav said EC should send her a notice and ban her from holding public rallies any more.
“Uma Bharati is spreading canard by claiming that 50 MlAs are in touch with her and Samajwadi Party government would fall if BJP comes to power at centre. The EC should take note of such statements as it was an effort to threaten the State Government and a violation of the Model Code of Conduct,” Yadav said while addressing reporters here on Friday.
He said if a BJP leader can claim that 50 MlAs are in touch with her then he can also assure her that several BJP leaders were continuously meeting him. “Several BJP leaders are in touch with me or Netaji( Mulayam Singh Yadav and are pleading before use to prevent Modi from becoming the Prime Minister,” he said.
“A legislator who never cared to attend State Assembly session is now trying to confuse people,” Yadav said without naming Uma Bharati who attended Vidhan Sabha for just one day in the last two years.
