The Samajwadi Party will have no alliance with big parties, including the Congress, and smaller outfits like Om Prakash Rajbhar, who opened doors for the BJP in Uttar Pradesh last time, are now with them, former chief minister Akhilesh Yadav told News18. an exclusive interview. He also said that the PM’s remarks on ‘Lal Topi’ (red cap bearing the SP’s signature) shows that the BJP is scared of it and explained that his controversial remarks about “spending his last days in Varanasi” are a part of the BJP government. was pointed to. Yadav also demanded that Union Minister of State for Home Ajay Mishra Teni be removed, as investigators had established a conspiracy in the Lakhimpur case involving the son of a BJP leader and farmers were being harvested. Edited excerpt…
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said that people should beware of those in red caps as it shows anarchy and kindness to terrorists…
I don’t know whether BJP understands red color or not. They are admitting that they are afraid of the Red Hat. Red is the color of emotion and revolution. Those who do not have red color in their life, they will not understand it. Maa Durga’s Chunari Lal is Sindoor Lal. Red is a vibrant colour. Jaiprakash Narayan, Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia and their disciples who gave the slogan of complete revolution, Netaji (Mulayam Singh Yadav) and Brij Bhushan Tiwari wore red caps. These are all leaders who wore red caps and worked hard for farmers, poor, youth and minorities to earn respect for them. The need of the hour is to save the Constitution from those who disrespect the Constitution. And we don’t just have red, we have yellow and green color of Om Prakash Rajbhar ji. When these people come together, they will remove those who like one color from UP.
Will you forge an alliance with Congress in Uttar Pradesh elections?
We will not tie up with big parties. If you see Om Prakash Rajbhar and others with us, they opened doors for BJP (in UP). This time he not only closed those doors but also tied those doors with a latch.
In the Lakhimpur Kheri investigation, the SIT has said that it was a well-planned conspiracy and charges have been added.
At least now the investigation has been done and these accused have been found to be conspiring. People were questioned and they are still part of the government (Minister of State for Home Ajay Mishra Teni). So can you think of justice without removing him from his position? These killings took us back to Jallianwala Bagh where people were shot from the front. Here BJP leaders crushed the farmers from behind. Today every section – be it traders or farmers – everyone is against the BJP, and the BJP will be wiped out in these elections.
What was the meaning of your Kashi comment – that people go there in their last days?
The question is not for whom it was asked. Why do people go to Kashi? What is Kashi known for? Who hasn’t seen dead bodies floating in the Ganges? People were left out when they needed medicines and vaccinations (during the second wave of Covid). BJP has the hobby of distorting anyone’s statement. The biggest questions being asked today are about unemployment, inflation, not who will spend his last days in Kashi. The last days of the government are left (the government is counting down its last days). Samajwadi Party is concerned about farmers, youth, inflation, unemployment and these are issues for us.
You took a lot of dig at Kashi’s events and one of them was Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath for not taking a dip in the Ganges. Why did you make that comment?
I got information that CM didn’t take a dip in Ganga and I think I know why he didn’t. Rivers in UP and the filth of those rivers go into the Ganges, whether it is Kali river, Gomti river or Yamuna river. So the CM was aware of it. UP did not see the cleanliness of the rivers and hence the CM did not take a dip. Had the PM known about this, he should have raised this issue too.
So do you think CM doesn’t inform PM about UP?
Double engine ki sarkar ke engine takra rahe rahe hai (Double engine sarkar ke engines are colliding). We remember that his people forced the CM to walk for miles and when that video went viral the CM got his picture clicked with the PM. Why was it done? This was done because he had to walk.
Information and Broadcasting Minister Anurag Thakur told us that your government has delayed projects for a long time…
Can the BJP deny that the land acquisition for Kashi redevelopment started during the SP government? As far as redevelopment of Kashi Vishwanath Dham is concerned, why was the work on Varuna river stopped? The Detailed Project Report (DPR) and budget of the Metro was approved by us. Why were the ghats not completed? The BJP is trying to take credit for the bridges built during the time of Netaji (Mulayam Singh Yadav). BJP should tell me why it stopped the projects started by SP. We acquired land for AIIMS. The gas pipeline to Haldia was approved during the tenure of our government. We did not get No Objection Certificate (NOC) for Jewar and Firozabad airports. Had they been given, there would have been another international airport in UP.
Thakur also said that you don’t respect elders and he feels bad for Mulayam Singh Yadav.
The BJP should first think of its elderly leaders and only then point fingers at others. They have senior leaders who were disrespected. No one knows where they are. They should look in the mirror and reflect.
