Samajwadi Party Chief Akhilesh Yadav targeted the Uttar Pradesh government on Saturday and said that official figures show the state has the worst law and order situation.
Akhilesh, while speaking to the media after attending an Iftar party in Lucknow, said that there is no one to look after UP. "Be it Prayagraj or any other district of the state, the government will not accept it, but the government figures show that the worst law and order situation is in Uttar Pradesh. There is no one to look after Uttar Pradesh," the SP Chief said. Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav slammed the BJP government in Uttar Pradesh on Wednesday, stating that the past eight years have been detrimental to Kannauj's development. Yadav criticised the government's handling of corruption, citing an instance where the Uttar Pradesh Police had to file an FIR against one of its own IAS officers. His comments come as the BJP government completes eight years in power in Uttar Pradesh. "These 8 years that have passed have cut off Kannauj from development...When their (BJP) 8 years were completed, the Uttar Pradesh Police itself had to file an FIR against one of its own IAS officers...," said Yadav. He also attacked the government's transparency, saying that this is the first administration where MLAs are openly demanding change. Furthermore, Yadav accused the government of dodging questions from the media, highlighting its reluctance to be held accountable. On the other hand, Uttar Pradesh's Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya hailed the state government's eight-year tenure as "historic" and filled with numerous achievements. According to Maurya, Uttar Pradesh has transformed from being a haven for "goons, criminals, mafia, and rioters" to becoming a beacon of development, good governance, and welfare for the poor, earning the nickname "Sarvottam Pradesh." "State Government completed 8 years of its governance...These 8 years of governance has been historic with several achievements. Uttar Pradesh had become the land of goons, criminals, mafia and rioters. Today is becoming 'Sarvottam Pradesh' - land of development, of good governance, of welfare of the poor," said the UP Dy CM.
