All parties except SP have laid down arms before BJP: Naresh Uttam

Prayagraj: Samajwadi Party state chief Naresh Uttam Patel on Sunday said that SP is the only party which is fighting against the anti-people policies of the BJP-led Union and UP governments. Apart from SP, all other parties have laid down their arms before BJP, Patel said while addressing a rally on KP College ground here. He claimed that popularity of SP chief and former chief minister Akhilesh Yadav has increased manifold and people were missing the “progressive regime of the SP government”. He, however, cautioned the party’s booth workers to keep an eye on voter revision list, anticipating that anomalies could be conducted at the behest of the ruling party. Patel said, “The BJP-led state government had destroyed the lives of farmers, youths and small industrialists by introducing black farm laws and hiking the prices of petrol, diesel and LPG cylinders.” Attacking the UP government over poor law and order condition, he said women are living under threat in the state.
