Lucknow: Samajwadi Party Chief and former Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav stated that the BJP is actively working to make the poor the pawns of its politics. Alleging that BJP governments are reluctant to listen to the people and only echo their own sentiments, Yadav criticized the ruling party’s indifference towards the opposition. He expressed distrust in the democratic systems of the country, emphasizing that the nation is being shown a hollow dream of becoming a developed India.

Yadav highlighted the stark realities of a country where millions still lack basic necessities, farmers grapple with debt leading to suicides, and women and children face increasing incidents of violence. He questioned the ethical grounds of deceiving people by sounding the guarantee bell when the fundamental issues of two square meals and employment opportunities remain unaddressed.

According to Yadav, the new generation in the country is drowning in despair, lacking access to education and job security. The business and industrial sector, he asserted, is severely distressed due to government intervention and exploitation. Despite claims of massive investments in Uttar Pradesh, he pointed out that no industries have been established, and unemployment persists.

Accusing the BJP government of creating an atmosphere of fear and intimidation through its agencies, Yadav criticized its approach towards national security. He cited an instance where the Samajwadi Party proposed a six-lane road from Gwalior to Lipulekh to swiftly transport troops and military equipment in case of a China-like incursion. However, the government opted for a single lane, raising concerns about the feasibility of rapid military deployment and access to the spiritual Mansarovar route.

In conclusion, Yadav urged the BJP government to reconsider its decisions and focus on practical solutions rather than engaging in political maneuvering. He emphasized the need for a thorough reevaluation, especially in matters concerning national security and spiritual progress, calling for a shift from politics to genuine governance.
