"Huge flaws in intentions and policies of BJP," says Samajwadi Party MP Dimple Yadav

Saifai (Uttar Pradesh) [India], May 7 (ANI): After casting her vote in Uttar Pradesh's Saifai, Dimple Yadav, Samajwadi Party MP and candidate from Mainpuri targeted the Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) over issues like inflation and unemployment and alleged that there is a huge flaw in the intention and policies of the party.
Speaking with ANI, Dimpal Yadav said, "People of every section are feeling neglected and the way unemployment is continuously increasing, the way inflation is continuously increasing, the way the value of rupee is continuously falling in the international market, I think there is a huge deficiency and a huge flaw in the Bharatiya Janata Party's intentions and policies."
She also said that the government in the 10 years has not been able to do any work and added, "The government has spread its failure in the whole country and the people today are upset and angry... I think it is a fight of political ideology, fight for the protection of the Constitution and the protection of democracy."
Earlier in the day, Samajwadi Party Chief Akhilesh Yadav took a jibe at the BJP and said, "... BJP is going to have a very bad defeat because farmers, youth, businessmen, people of every section are upset with them."
Akhilesh Yadav also alleged that the leaders of the BJP should be punished for deliberately conducting the elections in the summer season. He said, "We are voting in summer and BJP people should also be punished for this, although they will say that this is the decision of the Election Commission, BJP people deliberately make you vote in the summer to hurt you. This voting could have taken place a month earlier."
