TIL Desk/National/Lucknow/ Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Tuesday challenged Prime Minister Narerndra Modi’s claim about the crime situation in Uttar Pradesh, asking him to check data of the Home Department and other central agencies.
At a function after laying the stone of Raja Mahendra Pratap Singh State University in Aligarh, PM Modi earlier in the day said UP was run by gangsters and mafias before 2017. The Samajwadi Party was ruling the state then.
In a scathing attack at the BJP, Yadav told reporters at a press conference in Lucknow that it is good to set up a university but the party “runs the best training centre of telling lies”. He asked the BJP to pick “bulldozer” as its election symbol, referring to the alleged demolition of houses of some Ayodhya residents.
Yadav also asked Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath to get his eyesight tested, replying to the CM’s assertion that the Opposition leader lacked vision.
Yadav told reporters that the UP government is not working according to the law and warned officials that his party is preparing a list of those who violated the law, stressing that they won’t be spared once his party’s government comes to power.
When his attention was drawn to the PM’s comment over the law and order, Yadav said, “He should ask for the data of the Home Department or Dial 100 to see who is increasing the crime.”
