Hailing the victory of BJP in two by-elections party president laxmi Kant Bajpai dedicated this victory to the people saying the results are ominous signs for the ruling Samajwadi Party.
The BJP has won the Mayoral election in Ghaziabad and assembly bye-lection in Muzaffarnagar. The party grabbed the Assembly seat from Samajwadi Party. The election was held there following death of Chittaranjan Swaroop, a minister in Akhilesh Government.
“Four bye-elections were held – three for assembly and one for Mayor’s post
}recently. BJP has won two seats. This is a good sign for the party,” Dr Bajpai told reporters here on Tuesday.
He said people are fed up with the mis-rule of the Akhilesh Yadav government and therefore want to get rid of this corrupt Government. “The bye-election results are clear indications of things to come in future,” he said.
“There are reports that ruling party will try to rig the Council election slated for March 3. There are attempts from some quarters to persuade opposition candidate to withdraw their nomination papers. I appeal to officials not to heed the directives of SP leaders and perform their duties as per law,” he said.
