UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is sparing no efforts to target Samajwadi Party and Bahujan Samaj Party before the upcoming state municipal elections.
With the second phase of UP Municipal elections to be held soon, the UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is sparing no efforts to target Samajwadi Party and Bahujan Samaj Party.
Addressing an electoral meeting in Firozabad, Yogi Adityanath said that in the Samajwadi Party rule, the Municipal Corporations of UP had become bases of corruption. Now these industries of corruption, Gundaraj, anarchy and kidnappings won’t function.
He said that the SP and BSP misused the power they had been entrusted with and illegally acquired land and religious sites. Now the Anti Bhoo-Mafia Task Force has been established and 1,63,000 cases have been registered under this task force on which action will be taken after the Municipal elections. Not only the Mafias will be forced to vacate the land, but the expense of this action will be also taken from them.
CM Yogi told India Today that the BJP has governments in the centre and the state and if the BJP also wins the seats of Mayor, Corporator and Municipal Council Chairmans, the funds allocated for city development will be used judiciously and there will be no friction between the Mayors and Corporators. He said that if the entire Municipal board is formed of BJP supporters, the development will be on a fast-track.
Yogi said that Firozabad will be going into Municipal Corporation elections for the first time and every vote will be instrumental in changing the destiny of Firozabad. If the BJP forms the local government of UP cities, then every city will celebrate this win like the Diwali celebrated in Ayodhya.
Answering a question, he said that he had inherited a dying economy in UP. His government waived off farming loans of 46 lakh farmers as soon as they formed a government, which cost the exchequer 36 thousand crores. He said that in 2022 everyone in UP will have a personal residence. His government is forming a street vending policy in UP.
Commenting on Yogi’s electoral campaign senior Congress leader from Firozabad Saeed Patel said that it is surprising how the Chief Minister is using the state’s resources for the campaigning of his party candidates in municipal elections whereas earlier, senior leaders of the state did not campaign in municipal elections. Patel said that senior politicians should not interfere in the local governance issues. He said that in 2019, the voters will bring the BJP down on the streets with the first blow being dealt on 1st December, when the Municipal results are announced in UP.
