"We opposed it because false figures of the number of deaths were written in her speech": SP leader Mata Prasad Pandey on party opposing Governor address

Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India], February 18 (ANI): Samajwadi Party leader Mata Prasad Pandey on Tuesday said that the party members opposed the Governor's address in the budget session because she read false figures of deaths in the stampede that occurred in Mahakumbh.
Further he said that the party members demanded a correct figure of the deaths.
Speaking to ANI, Pandey said "Samajwadi Party opposed what was being read in her (Governor's) address because false figures were given in it. There was a demand that the correct figures of the deaths occurred in the stampede of Maha Kumbh should be given... The Governor left the speech halfway... We feel that she was saddened by the incidents that happened in Maha Kumbh, so she did not read the entire speech ..."
This comes after Samajwadi Party and Congress MLAs raised the 'Go Back Governor' slogan in the Uttar Pradesh state assembly as Governor Anandiben Patel addressed the assembly.
Meanwhile, UP Deputy CM Keshav Prasad Maurya took a jibe at the opposition for rasing slogans of 'Go Governor' during the assembly session and said that such behavior was very irresponsible.
He further termed the Samajwadi Party as less of a 'responsible political party' and more of a party that 'spread anarchy'.
Speaking to ANI, Maurya said "The behaviour of the opposition is irresponsible. Through the Governor's address, information is given about the works of the government. Instead of respecting the Governor, they create a ruckus... The Samajwadi Party has shown that it is less of a responsible political party and more of a party that spreads anarchy."
Meanwhile, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath appealed the opposition to cooperate so that the session can run peacefully till March 5.
CM Yogi Adityanath said, "It is not only the responsibility of the government but also the responsibility of the opposition to run the session smoothly. The standards that the double-engine BJP government has set in the last about 8 years for the development of UP are unprecedented. Its glimpse is seen through the speech as well as through the discussions inside the House. Naturally, the frustrated and disappointed opposition tries to run away from discussing these issues and tries to create obstacles in the proceedings of the House. If the opposition helps in taking forward the meaningful discussion, then I guess that this can be a very good session." (ANI)
