New Delhi : Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Wednesday launched a sharp attack on the previous Samajwadi Party government, alleging that its leaders, ministers and even then-chief minister Akhilesh Yadav “bowed down before rioters and criminals. Addressing a programme to distribute LPG refill subsidies to beneficiaries under the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana, Adityanath said the BJP government restored peace in the state and ensured that all festivals.
Goons ran free, and the poor were deprived of the welfare benefits. Ministers and leaders of the Samajwadi Party (SP) and even the chief minister would fall at the feet of mafias and rioters,” Adityanath claimed. The double-engine government of the BJP changed that culture by treating the entire state as one family, he said. We ended family rule and brought a governance model where no one’s caste, religion, or path is asked before giving benefits (of welfare schemes), he said.
The Ujjwala subsidy distribution event has been organised to provide free LPG cylinders to 1.86 crore beneficiaries across Uttar Pradesh ahead of Diwali, Adityanath said, calling it “a festival gift” from the state government. A total subsidy of Rs 1,500 crore has been released to benefit 1.86 crore people,” he said, in the presence of senior state minister Suresh Khanna and BJP Rajya Sabha MP Dinesh Sharma.
