BJP govt crossed all limits of injustice, atrocities:Akhilesh Yadav

Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav on Tuesday said the protesting farmers will bring down the BJP government at the Centre and predicted his own party’s victory in the next Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections. Addressing a press conference in Lucknow on Tuesday he alleged that the BJP government has crossed all limits of injustice and atrocities. Whoever raises their voice, the government muzzles it. Democracy will be safe only when this government goes.

Akhilesh reiterated support to farmers protesting at Delhi’s borders against the three new central agri-marketing laws. He accused the central government of putting off a planned round of talks while farmers camped out in bitter cold. He claimed there had never been so much corruption under any other government, and accused it of harming the economy. Yadav cited the coronavirus lockdown and demonetisation as “examples”. He accused the BJP of poaching leaders from other parties and instigating fights among them.“It is doing the same thing in West Bengal. It did the same in Uttar Pradesh before the assembly elections,” he said.
