BJP jingles to focus Samajwadi ‘goondraaj’, BSP ‘corruption’

Keeping the  upcoming Uttar Pradesh Assembly polls in mind, all political parties have geared up their poll campaigns. Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Amit Shah kicked off the party’s campaign through “Parivartan Yatra” on Saturday, followed by a rally on Sunday in Jhansi. The BJP chief targeted the state government for its “goondaraj” and BSP for its corruption.

Shah also promised to turn Uttar Pradesh into the richest state, if people dump incumbent Samajwadi Party (SP), and main opposition party BSP and usher the saffron party to rule the state. 

“I promise you that UP will become the richest state in the country once BJP comes to power. There will be no loot of public money, no scams as it has been under Samajwadi Party and Bahujan Samaj Party,” Shah added. 

He also mentioned that with the BJP-led government at the Centre, the state can progress by leaps and bounds if there is a government of the same party in UP. To evade Bihar and Delhi-like debacles, the BJP and RSS have chosen to reach out at every assembly seat and planning to conduct surveys. 

Thus, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will also hold meetings with youth leaders of respective assembly seats, sources told Millennium Post. To fight the ruling SP’s poll campaign, the BJP has planned four “Parivartan Yatras” which has started on Saturday, will cover the entire state after traversing over 17,000 km.

Meanwhile, Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh and BJP president Amit Shah on Sunday offered prayers at Pitambara Peeth temple complex here before heading for a rally at Jhansi in the poll-bound Uttar Pradesh. Union Ministers Kalraj Mishra, Thawar Chand Gehlot and BJP vice president Vinay Sahastrabuddhe and party’s UP chief Keshav Prasad Maurya accompanied them.

The BJP leader reached here by a special aircraft and were received by Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan and state minister Narottam Mishra.
