Akhilesh Yadav ‘Ready To Throw Western UP Into Communal Fire’: Yogi Slams SP For Fielding People With Criminal Records

Adityanath launched a vitriolic attack on the Samajwadi Party for fielding people with criminal records in the upcoming assembly elections.

Lucknow: Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav has made it clear that his party is ready to throw western Uttar Pradesh into the communal fire once again, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Sunday alleged.

Adityanath launched a vitriolic attack on the Samajwadi Party for fielding people with criminal records in the upcoming assembly elections.

He said the Samajwadi Party, which ruled the state from 2012 to 2017, is once again encouraging hooliganism, mafias and anarchy after joining hands with the Rashtriya Lok Dal (RLD) for the upcoming polls, ANI reported.

“The SP and RLD alliance showed its character from its first list released for the upcoming assembly elections. Once again, the SP has given tickets to criminals and rioters in the UP polls,” he said.

Adityanath alleged that Madan Bhaiya, who will be in the fray from the Loni assembly constituency, is counted in the list of mafias.

“Madan Bhaiya’s name comes under the list of mafias, but Akhilesh Yadav and Jayant Chaudhary have forgotten it. There are a total of 31 cases registered against him from 1982 to 2021 including murder cases,” he said.

The Chief Minister also took potshots at the Samajwadi Party for fielding Nahid Hasan from the Muzaffarnagar seat and said that a total of 17 cases were registered against him in Shamli and Saharanpur districts of the state.

“Similarly, a total of 23 criminal cases are registered against Haji Yunus, who was given ticket from Bulandshahr,” he added.

Lauding the first list of candidates released by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for the upcoming elections, Adityanath called it a symbol of “social justice”.

He added that the people of Uttar Pradesh must have also seen the Samajwadi Party’s list in which rioters and criminals dominate.

Eyeing a second term in power, the BJP earlier on Saturday released its first list of 107 candidates for the upcoming elections.

Voting for the 403-member Uttar Pradesh Assembly will be held in seven phases from February 10 to March 7. The counting of votes will be held on March 10.
