AGRA: Accusing
Yogi Adityanath of being discriminating against a particular sect and community,
Samajwadi party chief Akhikesh Yadav claimed that before moving into government accommodation, current state chief cleaned it with
Ganga water
.
"The entire house was sanitised with Ganga jal for Yogi Adityanath after we vacated it. If such insult can be done to us, imagine what else would have been done with other people,” said Akhikesh who was addressing public gathering in
Farrukhabad
’s Merapur and Chhibramau of
Kannauj district
to gather support for SP-BSP alliance candidates including his wife Dimple Yadav.
Continuing his attack on the incumbent state chief minister, Akhilesh said, "In order to defame us, media was called at 8 am in morning and camera were rolled to shot missing ‘totte’ (water tap). I assure you, the day we returned to power, will find the officials who conducted the search and will ask him to find 'chilam' in the same house until it’s recovered."
He said, "The BJP leaders alleged that we made money in Agra-Lucknow expressway project and are corrupt, then by that logic, the saffron men should travel in ship which they have launched in Ganga or should take pothole ridden
G T road
."
"BJP leaders have done Phd is discriminating people based on caste and religion. They want to divide and rule. Be alert this time, earlier they came as chaiwala and this time they are claiming themselves Chowkidars. In their endeavour to power, they have made farmers Chowkidar who are forced to man their farm-field from stray cattle. They also failed in giving appropriate price to crops such as potato," said the SP chief while addressing scores of farmers.
Farrukhabad and Kannauj constituencies will cast vote in fourth phase.
