Lucknow : Samajwadi Party (SP) led by Akhilesh Yadav on Monday, held a protest march against the Yogi Adityanath -led UP government, highlighting issues in the state before the Monsoon Session of the state legislature commenced today.
The Leader of Opposition (LoP) Akhilesh Yadav accused the BJP government of stopping him and his party members from marching to the Vidhan Bhavan raising various issues concerning the people ahead of the Monsoon session of the state assembly.
“Today, we were stopped from doing protest outside the assembly. What is the need of such a government which do not want the MLAs to come to the assembly? When the government didn’t allow us to protest in the assembly, then the Samajwadi party decided the path of streets,” Akhilesh said.
The SP Chief also lashed out at the UP government for the failure to provide any help to the farmers and animals in the state.
“In the last five years, and in this tenure, the roads are in bad condition and there are holes in it. This time we also witnesses that some places in Uttar Pradesh were suffering from floods while some were suffering from drought, but the government has not provided aid to any farmers. The animals are dying in large numbers, but the government is not helping them. The Deputy CM himself says that he feels ashamed after inspection,” Akhilesh said.
The SP leader also attacked the UP government on rising inflation and also mentioned the “dissatisfaction” of the youth with the ‘Agniveer’ scheme.
