Samajwadi Party (SP) president Akhilesh Yadav went lyrical on Wednesday to slam the Adityanath government for renaming Uttar Pradesh cities, saying the developmental works in the State have come to a halt due to it.
“ Band pade hain saare kaam, bikhra pada sab samaan; tarakki ke ruke hain raste, badal rahe hain bus naam,” (All works have stopped, materials lie scattered; paths of development stand blocked, only names are being changed),” tweeted Mr. Yadav, tagging a few photographs of stalled works.
This came on a day when the SP faced another ‘poetic’ attack from its own Minister, Om Prakash Rajbhar, the chief of ruling NDA constituent Suheldev Bhartiya Samaj Party.
“Diwali me Ali basey, Ram basey Ramzan, Aisa hona chahiye apna Hindustan,” (India’s ethos should be just like that of Diwali, which has Ali in it and Ramzan, which has Ram),” tweeted Rajbhar Wednesday, highlighting the futility of changing names.
