SP conceded defeat even before LS polls: Yogi

Badaun (UP), April 29 (Representative) Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said on Sunday that Samajwadi Party has conceded its defeat even before the conclusion of the Lok Sabha election. The CM said, “The frequent changes in candidates by SP indicate that the party has accepted defeat even before the elections are over.”Taking a dig at the Congress and SP, Yogi said that those who challenge divine power are destined to fall, adding that the SP has turned the Lok Sabha elections into a mockery. Referring to Congress’ manifesto while addressing a public meeting in Bilsi, Badaun, he said, “Congress is working on hidden agendas against the nation. Former Prime Ministers used to hesitate to visit Ayodhya but PM Modi is the first Prime Minister who visited Ayodhya and witnessed consecration ceremony of Ram Lalla in his magnificent temple after 500 years.”

He also urged people to support the BJP candidate and regional president Durvijay Shakya.The CM said, “It appears that even the chacha recognised it was time to step back, while the bhatija stumbled even before the start. This pattern by the SP is evident in Shahjahanpur, Rampur, and Meerut. However, the public knows all these tactics and won’t succumb to it.” He said that with the connection of the Ganga Expressway, this region is becoming a part of the industrial development process. “Before 2014, terrorist activities used to occur in India, and Pakistan would celebrate while the Indian government remained silent. Today, even if a firecracker goes off in Pakistan, it starts giving explanations because it knows when and where a surgical strike might occur,” he said.Yogi said, “Presently, the country is setting up new milestones of security and prosperity with highways, expressways, and development. A long series of welfare schemes for the poor is available to the public.”

He said that previous governments played with faith. “People from Congress used to say that Ram and Krishna never existed. Today, after 500 years, the anticipation has ended, and Ram Lalla is now enshrined in his magnificent temple. We will honour the great personalities and faith in every district. We have started with Kashi and Ayodhya, and after Braj, Badaun is also on the list,” he said.The CM cautioned people against Congress, SP, and BSP, alleging that they have a hidden agenda against India. “They are planning to tamper with reservations for Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, and the backward class and are preparing to impose an Inheritance tax on your property after surveying it,” he said. He said, “We have tackled the mafia and goons. The SP did not utter a single word of condolence on the death of CM Kalyan Singh but visited the home of a mafia to read the Fatiha upon his death,” he said.
