LUCKNOW: Describing BJP’s announcement to give away one crore tablets and examination allowance to students as a blatant lie, SP chief Akhilesh Yadav said CM Yogi Adityanath has shattered all records of misleading people. He said the BJP has not fulfilled the promises it had made in its election manifesto and had gone ahead to make more promises with barely six months before polls.
“BJP and the CM have spoken lies in Vidhan Sabha. With six months to go for the elections, the government has announced it will give one crore tablets and examination allowance to students. The fact is that the government has not fulfilled a simple promise like internet data to students. What happened to the Vivekanand Internet Sewa?” Akhilesh questioned.
He said the government has not been able to spend even 20% of the budget, but it presented the supplementary budget to mislead people by promising them something or the other. He said the government has failed to complete PWD project involving laying of 640km of road on the Indo-Nepal border that is yet to be completed 10 years after it began.
“The CAG report presented before the state assembly has exposed the poor state of affairs of 11 public units of power department. The accumulated losses of these units have reached Rs 162,180.07 crore,” he said.
‘Akhilesh doesn’t control SP cycle’
Government spokesperson Sidharth Nath Singh on Friday hit out at Akhilesh Yadav for his tweet on BJP’s “double engine government”, saying that SP’s cycle had already been trashed and he should stop worrying about BJP. “Why are you so scared of the double engine government? Passengers on this ride are safe. People say the handle of this cycle is with someone else in your family,” he said.
