Senior Yadav said farmers welfare was his party’s first priority and the party wants to provide all the facilities for irrigation, seeds and fertilizers to increased productivity. Farmers, youth and businessmen will make India strong, said Mulayam Singh Yadav.

Days before Phase 3 polling in Uttar Pradesh, the Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Thursday alleged that the BJP always indulged in creating rift among people and should change its name to Bharatiya Jhagda Party.
Hitting out at the BJP, the SP chief alleged that the BJP spreads lies, incites rift among people and it should be Bharatiya Jhagda Party.
Speaking at a poll rally in Karhal, the SP stronghold from where he is contesting, Yadav said the BJP always misleads, betrays and instigates rifts among people so the party should change its name to Bharatiya Jhagda Party.
He was confident that the people of Karhal would once again vote for the cycle and ensure a massive victory in Uttar Pradesh, the SP chief, who was accompanied by the party patriarch Mulayam Singh Yadav, said.
Slamming the BJP for betraying the people of Uttar Pradesh by making false promises, Yadav said that the Yogi Adityanath government neither gave employment nor did they double the farmers’ income. The BJP snatched away jobs and livelihoods, he said.
For the first time after the 2019 Lok Sabha election, the SP patriarch Mulayam Singh Yadav has campaigned for his son Akhilesh Yadav, who is contesting from Karhal against the BJP minister SP Singh Baghel.
