Kanpur: On his tour of Kanpur and Kanpur Dehat on Wednesday, Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav slammed the BJP govt, saying India’s foreign policy has weakened and the dream of becoming Vishwaguru has faded.Taking a sharp dig, he remarked: “Earlier there were ‘Codeine Bhais’ and now ‘Kidney Bhais’ have surfaced. In BJP’s rule, kidneys are being extracted here. If probed, much will be exposed. It looks like a new OTT series could be made on the kidney scandal. Kanpur has been turned into Badnaampur.”Akhilesh accused the BJP govt of rampant corruption, saying even LPG cylinders are short in weight. He alleged that govt is avoiding panchayat elections out of fear that its failures will be exposed. “Is BJP a party or a circus? Chief Minister himself mocks his own MP,” he quipped. Taking another swipe, the SP chief said: “Who put up the posters of the film Dhurandhar and where — only BJP people can answer. Many of their films flop right after release.”During his visit, Akhilesh highlighted the visible development works credited to his party. “When we reached Kanpur, we saw the metro pillars — these are the gift of the Samajwadi Party. Moving towards Panki, the tall chimneys stand as another SP contribution. And if you go further towards Bhognipur or Ghatampur, you will see the imprint of SP’s work there too,” he said. “I urge the people of Bengal to give Mamata Didi a resounding victory. Every single vote will be a vote to safeguard democracy. Across Bengal, it is Didi who stands tall. Her win will mark an end to injustice, and that is why the BJP is fearful, leaning on the Election Commission for support,” Akhilesh added.He said PDA prahris have been appointed to monitor cases of voter list deletions. In Kanpur, our prahari exposed one such incident. Yet, no officer faced any action. BJP workers have orchestrated the deletion of Muslim votes, but the Election Committee has failed to act against even a single official.Akhilesh said the dark days of inflation, unemployment, humiliation, and divisive hatred are coming to an end. People now want to bring back a Samajwadi Party government that will steer the state onto the path of development.
