Akhilesh did nothing even in SP strongholds, says Yogi
Lucknow June 7 (IANS) Uttar Pradesh Chief minister Yogi Adityanath on Thursday launched a scathing attack on his predecessor Akhilesh Yadav saying the Samajwadi Party (SP) chief had failed in implementing the government s pro-poor schemes.
Addressing a public rally in the Yadav stronghold of Mainpuri the Chief Minister said while in the last year of the SP government no houses were constructed under the Prime Minister s housing scheme in the last one year 577 houses had been made under the BJP regime.
"During the five-year SP government only 500 houses were constructed " he pointed out.
Adityanath said in his entire tenure Akhilesh Yadav had provided power connections to only 525 villages while his government had in a small time of one year taken electricity to 1 051 villages.
Similarly he said under the community wedding scheme of the state government only 1 627 poor families had benefited while in the one-year rule of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) this number had gone up to 2 320.
The Chief Minister later reviewed the law and order situation in the district. He also presided over a "Chaupal" under the party s Gram Swaraj Mission and interacted with villagers in an attempt to know their problems and get a first-hand account of the reach of government schemes at the ground level.
"People from among you have done nothing for you. There had not been a single loan waiver in Mainpuri in 2017 while in the last one year we have waived off loans of 38 001 farmers of the district " 46-year-old Adityanath.
He also warned officials that he would not tolerate any laxity with regard to welfare and people-oriented schemes rolled out by his government.
