Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India], May 6 (ANI): Samajwadi party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Tuesday courted controversy when he attacked the BJP government accusing it if being unable to manufacture even a local bomb in Uttar Pradesh as they had promised.
Taking a potshot on the ruling BJP government, Yadav claimed that BJP had promised to manufacture fighter pilots, rifles, arms and ammunitions in Jhansi and Bundelkhand region of the state, but they didn’t even make a “sutli bomb” there and the Centre is still importing defence equipment from different countries.
“The people of BJP is snatching lands of the farmers…. Lands are diminishing due to expanding infrastructure. We do not want our farmers to get cheated, we want to help the farmers of Jhansi. We want farmers to get rate of their lands at market price. BJP should not forget they tried to differentiate on the land of Lord Shri Ram and hence they were defeated in Ayodhya. BJP snatched and looted the lands of poor of Ayodhya. It was message to the country that it was the end of communal politics. I urge the farmers of Bundelkhand to teach a lesson to BJP, he said.
“They had lied that they will manufacture fighter pilots, missiles. If these missiles, arms, ammunitions were made in our Bundelkhand, then we didn’t need to import it from different countries. BJP has promised to manufactures all arms and ammunitions. But we have heard that in Jhansi and Bundelkhand, they didn’t even make any sutli bombs and missiles and took lands of the farmers. We urge the farmers to form a government of Samajwadi Party and we will give market price rate of their lands. We urge them to not to sign on any government document,” Yadav added. while addressing a press conference.
The Samajwadi Party chief demanded to the government to give fair compensation for farmers’ lands.
Yadav said, “This is an important issue of Jhansi in Bundelkhand. Lands of 25 thousand farmers is being usurped through the authority. The Samajwadi Party demands for fair compensation for farmers in Jhansi and Uttar Pradesh whose land is being acquired for development, industry, or business projects. We demand that farmers receive fair market value for their land. We insist that farmers should not be pressurised to signing any agreement without their full consent. Our farmers sometimes do not understand and are misled into signing documents, after which they lose their rights.”
He further said, “The government is selling JPNIC (Jai Prakash Narayan International Center). We are also ready to buy it on the same price on which the government is selling.”
Citing a purported post of BJP where they said they need volunteers for help, Yadav questioned if the party knows war is going to happen.
“How does BJP know war will happen? How do they know? Their IT cells, media cells have said they need volunteers, how do they know? Desh bachao, hum sab bachenge tab hi (Save the country, then we will be saved). How BJP can tweet this? BJP is not serious even on the issue of security. How their party people know war is going to happen? This is not a time to show off… We all stand with government, we all stand with government’s decision. Now, mock drill will be conducted tomorrow…” he said. (ANI)
