Akhilesh took potshots at Prime Minister Narendra Modi too and said a country cannot function if one person decides that the currency notes of 500 and 1000 won’t be legal tender after midnight.
Continuing his tirade against the opposition, Akhilesh said that the BJP has not launched any scheme that even closely compares to the schemes launched during his regime in the state.
The Chief Minister accused the BJP of framing the 2017 Union Budget by plagiarising his party’s agenda.
“They said ‘acche din aa jaayenge’. I want to ask the people where the ‘acche din’ are. They gave a slogan and some people blindly followed it. They gave a ‘jhaadu’ (broom) in our hands instead. They made us do yoga. Now, the fourth budget of their government is about to come and I am sure that they will copy everything the Samajwadi Party has done for the state,” Yadav said.
Referring to the family feud, Akhilesh said, “You must have read a lot in the newspapers that we fought a lot. We actually did. The opposition dubbed it in a totally different light.”
“But the whole fight was about the people of the state. It was about how to provide the people with a better life. We promise to give 24-hour supply of electricity,” he added.
Talking about the recently launched manifesto, Akhilesh said that the promises made in the last manifesto were fulfilled and assured to fulfil all even this time.
