AGRA, Nov 15: Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Sunday alleged that corruption and loot had doubled during the 10-year rule of the “double-engine” government.
Addressing the PDA Dalit conference here, Yadav criticised the BJP government and said the party had been worried over the growing strength of the PDA since 2024.
He said the political assertion of backward classes, Dalits and minorities had caused concern within the BJP. PDA stands for backward classes, Dalits and minorities.
Yadav said preparations for seat-sharing, elections and the selection of candidates would be finalised soon. He, however, did not specify which election the preparations were for.
He also said the BJP had been unable to publicise its government’s work by organising religious events.
In the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, the Samajwadi Party won 37 of Uttar Pradesh’s 80 seats, the Congress won six and the BJP secured 33 seats.
