Launching a frontal attack on Samajwadi Party, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said that during the tenure of Akhilesh Yadav, terrorists were worshipped and fake cases were registered against Hindus.

“The Samajwadi Party government had withdrawn cases against terrorists who had attacked Ram Janmabhoomi complex and false cases were registered against the innocent,” Yogi said while addressing Pal/Baghel community members on Wednesday.

 Mincing no words, the Chief Minister said, “Akhilesh belongs to a party that works for terrorists whereas the BJP works for the poor and is wholeheartedly committed towards the welfare of the state and its people including poor, farmers, and women.”

Asserting that his government did not engage or believe in caste politics, Yogi said, “Our government has implemented many public welfare schemes to realise the dreams of 24 crore people of Uttar Pradesh. The BJP government has always worked towards bringing harmony in various sections of society.”

The chief minister further said, “One is always remembered for his good work. People should be made aware of the development works done in the last four and a half years. They should also be told about how our government saved the lives and livelihood of the people during the coronavirus pandemic. It is only the BJP that works for the interests of citizen of the country and the state.”

Invoking Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar, considered an iconic figure of Backward Classes and Dalits, Yogi said that Dr Ambedkar emerged as the voice of the downtrodden classes and was revered due to his work towards social justice, equality, Indian values and tradition.

“Babasaheb always spoke about the integrity and security of India. He opposed social evils and said that the voice of the Backward Class should be raised,” he added.
