Addressing the masses in support of the joint BJP-Apna Dal candidate from Soraon Assembly constituency, the Bhartiya Janata Party national president Amit Shah said that both SP and BSP had pushed the UP into pits in their respective regimes. In UP only crime speake here and none other than the BJP could get the people of UP rid of this
Holding a road show two day ahead of the fouth phase of the assembly election slated to be held on Feburary 23, the BJP natiional president accompanied by BJP state presindent Kesav Pradad Maurya, BJP senior leader Rita Bahuguna Joshi sought the support in favour of its candidates Nand Gopal Gutpa Nandi, Siddharth Nath Singh and Harshvardhan Bajai here. During the road show, he also garlanded the statue of legend Chandrashkehar Azad and also blew the conch together.
Hitting out at the Akhilesh Yadav government, Shah said that the Samajwadi Party government was responsible for the prevailing deteiroted law and order sitution here as it never tried to extend help to the masses.
He further said that the Union government had launched several welfare programmes for the benefit of people but the state government never implemented those schemes at the ground level.
The BJP chief said that this was on record that the BJP-led NDA government had given over Rs 2 lakh crore to the state government through various schemes in the last one year but the latter failed to utilize that money.
Coming down heavily on Akhilesh Yadav for his ‘kaam bolta hai’ tagline, Shah said that actually work speaks. Uttar Pradesh is at the top of crime graph that’s why private entrepreneurs prefer to stay away from the state. He further claimed that if the CM had worked, there would have been a beeline of private players to invest in UP. Dubbing the the SP-Congress alliance as 'hollow' and `opportunistic’ pact, Shah said, their dubious effort would leave no impact on the masses the peiople will teach them a lesson in this election, Shah said.
He also promised to close the slaughter house and said that no animals would be killed but the river of ghee-and milk would be flown from here.
