Bahujan Samaj Party chief Mayawati questioned Governor Anandiben Patel over her giving a clean chit to the State Government on welfare and development and ignoring the hardship of the people during her address in the Assembly.

Objecting to the Governor’s claim, the former UP Chief Minister said that the tall claims of development or launching public welfare programmes should only be made when some of them are also visible on ground.

She accused the BJP Government of making propaganda of their achievements when there was nothing on ground and all sections of the society were facing hardship, due to inflation, lawlessness etc. She claimed that the Governor’s address failed to fulfill the expectations of the people. 

Mayawati said that had the Governor’s address included some problems faced by common man then one would have been hopeful of witnessing some ‘achhe din’ in the days ahead but no mention of any relevant issues made it clear that the Government was not serious on taking up issues related to public interest.

The BSP chief further said that for some, ‘achhe din’ had already come as they were free to engage in illegal mining, openly barge inside police stations and assault the men in uniform or indulged in any other kind of unlawful activities.
