SP chief Akhilesh Yadav is staunch opponent of Dalits, backward classes: UP Dy CM Keshav Prasad Maurya

New Delhi [India], July 26 (ANI): Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya on Friday slammed Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav, alleging that he has always been against backwards and Dalits.
"Akhilesh Yadav has always been against backwards and Dalits. He himself is a pawn of Congress," Maurya told reporters here.
Maurya also alleged that the SP's PDA (Pichrde Dalits Alpsankhyak) alliance is "a big fraud."
"The SP chief @yadavakhilesh and his family are staunch opponents of the backward classes and the Dalits. SP's PDA is a big fraud. The Congress pawn @yadavakhilesh playing in the hands of foreign powers, left no stone unturned to prevent the Prime Minister @narendramodi from becoming the Prime Minister for the third time," Maurya posted on X.
Earlier in the day, the SP chief called Maurya a "Mohra".
"They (BJP) have spoiled every system. Every system and every department has been ruined...I heard that (Keshav Prasad) Maurya ji is 'Mohra'. He is the password of Delhi's WiFi. Tell me, will the government run like this?...UP will not run like this. They have cheated the people of UP," the SP chief said, addressing a press conference.
"We are Samajwadi Mohre. We are Mohre of the poor," the SP chief said.
Akhilesh Yadav unveiled 'Samvidhan Manastambh' established to house a copy of the Constitution at the Samajwadi Party headquarters in Lucknow on Friday.
Earlier on July 18, in a post on X, the SP chief announced a "Monsoon Offer" in which he asked dissidents to bring a hundred MLAs and form the government in Uttar Pradesh.
"Monsoon Offer: Bring a hundred, form the government!," the post stated.
After Samajwadi Party chief and MP Akhilesh Yadav's "Monsoon Offer" announcement, Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister called it "Mungerilal ke haseen sapne" (a 1989 TV show on a daydreamer Mungerilal).
In a post on X, the BJP leader said that the public and the karyakartas will "wrap up the Monsoon Offer at 47" in 2027.
"A sinking ship and a dying party whose both present and future are in danger. He may see "Mungerilal ke haseen sapne" but they cannot be fulfilled," Maurya said in his post.
Earlier, Maurya caused a stir with a post on X from his office that quoted Maurya as saying, "The organisation is bigger than the government; the pain of the workers is my pain. No one is bigger than the organisation; the workers are the pride."
The post made the opposition speculate that this was a sign of dissent in the BJP. SP chief Akhilesh Yadav alleged that the BJP's fight for power meant it wasn't thinking about the public.
In the 2017 state assembly elections, the Samajwadi Party managed to win only 47 seats while the BJP single-handedly won 312 seats with over 40 per cent vote share. The elections to the 403-member Uttar Pradesh legislative assembly will be held in 2027. (ANI)
