Ambedkar Nagar, September 19 (Daily Kiran) : Om Prakash Rajbhar, a minister in the Uttar Pradesh government, launched a sharp critique against Samajwadi Party (SP) president Akhilesh Yadav regarding his proposed PDA yatra. Speaking with the media in Ambedkar Nagar, Rajbhar stated that the SP had historically focused on the interests of a single community.
He pointed out that several initiatives aimed at social reform were halted during the previous SP administration. Rajbhar commended the current law and order situation under Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, asserting that criminals face swift action. He claimed that within 48 hours of a crime, offenders either end up in jail or face dire consequences.
Rajbhar dismissed the effectiveness of Yadav’s yatra, suggesting that simply organizing a procession or rally would not garner public support. He alleged that during the SP’s tenure, power was used to enhance the political influence of a specific caste. Notably, Yadav has previously conducted similar rallies, but Rajbhar believes these efforts will not resonate with the electorate.
He also made a jab at the color of the vehicle being prepared for Yadav’s yatra, stating that changing the color—be it saffron or otherwise—does not alter political realities. According to Rajbhar, the Dalit community is now more aware than ever and is scrutinizing the historical records of political parties.
Referencing the past political rift between BSP leader Mayawati and the SP, he recalled the infamous guest house incident, claiming that BJP leaders had provided security for Mayawati during that crisis.
In mentioning the saffron color, Rajbhar recalled controversies from the SP’s rule, alleging that orders were given to fire upon Ram devotees during that time. He emphasized that merely changing political or religious appearances does not erase a party’s historical actions.
Rajbhar accused the SP government of fostering an environment of insecurity, citing incidents of robbery, dacoity, and murder. In contrast, he praised the increased police action against criminals under Yogi Adityanath’s leadership.
