“The entire country stood in queues…it was only the SP government which extended financial help to families of those who lost their lives in queues,” he said.
Attacking the BJP government for surgical strikes, he said several jawans were killed on the border later and questioned what help was extended to their families.
“It was the SP government which gave an ex-gratia of Rs 25 lakh to their families…our government helped everyone…I appeal to people that the state elections are also going to decide the direction of the country and all should cast their votes judiciously,” he said.
The chief minister was flanked by SP national general secretary Ravi Prakash Verma, party district chief Anurag Patel, Dhaurehra SP candidate Yash Pal Chaudhary and the Congress leader.
