Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Dinesh Sharma on Monday described the Opposition as “an unemployed lot” and claimed that the Samajwadi Party and the Bahujan Samaj Party are “losing their existence gradually”.
The works done by Prime Minister Narendra Modi have been so effective and people-centric that the opposition has no issue, he said at a private programme of BJP MlA Puran Prakash here.
“Politically, the opposition parties in Uttar Pradesh have become an unemployed bunch with Rahul Gandhi (Congress vice-president) and Akhilesh Yadav (the SP chief) as its active members,” he said.
Sharma said, “The Opposition now is virtually issue-less, and the SP and the BSP are losing their existence gradually.”
