Akhilesh Yadav should not be arrogant; the public has time and again shattered his arrogance: Keshav Prasad Maurya

Keshav Prasad Maurya stated that whenever Akhilesh Yadav has succumbed to arrogance, the people of the state have shattered it. It has become his political habit to make tall claims before elections and indulge in fanciful, unrealistic dreams of victory. In 2022, he had claimed that his party would win more than 400 seats, but the public exposed the reality behind such claims. The people of the state have not forgotten the atmosphere that the goons, mafia, criminals, and anarchic elements—supported by the Samajwadi Party—tried to create during that election. Mr. Maurya remarked that Akhilesh Yadav is currently pretending to be a well-wisher of the backward classes and Dalits. The truth is that the Samajwadi Party has never held any respect for these sections—neither in the past, nor today, nor will it in the future. The backward and Dalit communities are well aware of the Samajwadi Party’s political theatrics and rhetoric. The Samajwadi Party should not make the mistake of viewing its unexpected success in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections as a sign of permanent political strength. Akhilesh Yadav is free to indulge in his fanciful dreams, but they will never become reality.

The Deputy Chief Minister asserted that the politics of the Bharatiya Janata Party is not rooted in the arrogance of power, but rather in a commitment to service, good governance, development, and the welfare of the poor. Under the guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the leadership of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, Uttar Pradesh is consistently reaching new milestones in development, security, and good governance. The people of the state have placed their trust in the initiatives and public welfare schemes of the 'double-engine' government. Mr. Maurya urged the Samajwadi Party and its leadership to abandon rhetoric designed to mislead the public and, instead, provide an account of their own tenure in power. The people of Uttar Pradesh have clearly witnessed the politics of dynasticism, appeasement, and anarchy. Now, the people of the state stand firmly in support of development, security, dignity, and good governance. He stated that every BJP worker is committed to serving the public—while remaining among them—and to the development of the state. He expressed confidence that the public’s blessings will continue to be with the BJP, and that the people will respond to the political arrogance of the opposition in a democratic manner.
