Uttar Pradesh (20/01/2022): Pramod Gupta, former MLA and brother-in-law of former chief minister of Uttar Pradesh Mulayam Singh Yadav, who joined the Bharatiya Janata Party on Thursday, accused Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav of hating the Samajwadis and said that he cornered everyone one by one.
Ahead of the assembly elections, Pramod Gupta and former Congress leader Priyanka Maurya on Thursday joined the BJP.
Speaking to the media, Gupta said, “Akhilesh Ji hates Samajwadis in SP. One by one, he cornered everyone and has only flatterers around in the party. He does not like the people who work on the ground. No one has ever won with a margin of over 18,000 votes from the Bidhuna seat except me. I was denied ticket first up.’
Talking about the reason behind joining the BJP ahead of the Assembly elections, he said that he liked the honest image of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.
“I liked the policies of the government. I liked the image of Yogi Adityanath as an honest politician. This is why I joined the BJP,” Gupta said.
Earlier, the former SP MLA also had accused Akhilesh of inducting criminals and gamblers in the party and of imprisoning Mulayam Singh Yadav.
