UP elections: Rahul Gandhi says alongside Akhilesh Yadav, ‘we will change the fortunes of Uttar Pradesh’

Uttar Pradesh elections: Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav and Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi drew huge crowds in their joint roadshow in Agra today and thereafter both concluded it for the day by addressing the gathering. The raucous crowd at first drowned out what the leaders were saying and this forced them to virtually shout out loud about their parties’ efforts and what they hoped to achieve for the people of the state if they were elected to the office. The Samajwadi Party faces accusations of goonda raj and a law & order situation that is far from ideal. Yadav has sought to dispel this notion throughout his campaign and promised to improve it further as well as give economic progress and development a greater boost.
