PM is being “too arrogant” which does not augur well for democracy: Mulayam

TIL Desk/National/Ghazipur(UP)/ Attacking Narendra Modi over the demonetisation move, Samajwadi Party supremo Mulayam Singh Yadav today said the Prime Minister is being “too arrogant” which “does not augur well” for democracy. Addressing Samajwadi Party’s campaign rally at the RTI ground here, he accused the Prime Minister of working as per his “own whims and fancies” and “cautioned” him to change his policies.

“Pradhan Mantriji ghamand me na choor hon…aaj hum unko savadhan karna chahte hain ke woh apni nitiyon mein sanshodhan karen…loktantra mein manmani nahi chalti…(The PM should not be arrogant. Today I caution him to change his policies.

There is no place for individual’s whims and fancies in a democracy,” he said. “This won’t work…people are very wise,” he said. Uttar Pradesh goes to polls next year. Samajwadi Party had won 227 MLAs in the 403-member Assembly in 2012.

“I have often said farmers and traders are like real brothers…farmers grow crop and traders sell it…but I don’t know what is going on in the PM’s mind…he threatens and says that honest people are sleeping a sound sleep…are we dishonest that we are opposing it?” Yadav said.
