Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya on Saturday slammed opposition following the Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) victory in the Delhi Assembly election, stating that they are on the path to becoming a "Samaptawadi party" (a party headed towards extinction).
This comes after BJP secured a resounding victory in the Milkipur Assembly bypolls, where its candidate Chandrabhanu Paswan won by a thumping margin of 61,710 votes against Ajit Prasad. In Delhi, also clinched a comfortable win over AAP, securing 48 out of 70 assembly seats. "We have won the Milkipur by-election as if we have won the 2027 UP assembly elections. Be it the AAP, Congress or Samajwadi Party, all are moving towards becoming a 'Samaptawadi party'. BJP is the present and the future and the guarantee of youth welfare, good governance and developed India," Maurya said. "This is victory of democracy and corruption has been defeated today," Maurya added. Additionally, Deputy CM Brajesh Pathak expressed gratitude to voters for BJP's victories in Delhi and Milkipur "I thank the public of Delhi and Milkipur. We have received a one-sided victory in Milkipur and this is the victory of the welfare schemes of PM Modi. The entire opposition has been wiped out," Pathak said. Earlier in the day, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath targeted SP and said that the result will "put a full stop to the politics of 'pariwarwad' and lies." "The results of Milkipur by-elections will put a full stop to the politics of 'pariwarwad' and lies...The people have made it clear that no matter how much propaganda is done by the Samajwadi Party, public is going to punish them," CM Yogi said. Meanwhile, SP chief Akhilesh Yadav accused BJP of "misusing" electoral machinery to win the elections. "BJP cannot face the growing power of PDA on the basis of votes, that is why it tries to win by misusing the electoral machinery. The level of manipulation of officials required to carry out such electoral fraud may be possible in one assembly constituency, but this 'four hundred BC' will not work in 403 assemblies. BJP members also know this, that is why BJP members postponed the by-election of Milkipur. PDA means 90% of the people have seen this fraud with their own eyes," Yadav wrote on X. (ANI)
