TIL Desk/National/Allahabad-With Akhilesh Yadav at war with his uncle Shivpal Yadav, Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi took a dig at him, saying the Chief Minister was trying to change the image of his government by “replacing tyres of his damaged cycle” but it was too late.
Making speeches during his yatra in Allahabad with an eye on 2017 Assembly polls, Rahul said Akhilesh cannot accomplish much in the remaining few months. “Akhilesh Yadav is trying to change the image of his government. He is trying to replace tyres of his damaged cycle,” the Congress leader said, in an apparent referrece to the SP’s election symbol cycle and removal of tainted ministers from cabinet by Akhilesh.
“But he should realize it is too late. Four-and-a-half years have been wasted,” he added. Later, at a ‘Khaat Sabha’ in Kaushambi’s Teva village, he said “I thought that Akhikesh Yadav is a new boy…he will be able to mend the puncture of Samajawadi Party but he has torn the tyre of (party’s) bicycle”.
