"80 Harao, BJP Hatao": Akhilesh's Yadav's Call To Remove BJP In 2024
NDTV
Uttar Pradesh has 80 Lok Sabha seats. The SP had only won five in 2019 and lost two of them -- Rampur and Azamgarh -- to the BJP in the by-elections.
Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Sunday gave a new slogan "80 harao, BJP hatao" (defeat 80, remove BJP), implying that if the saffron party has to be removed in 2024, it has to be defeated in all Lok Sabha seats in Uttar Pradesh.
He also targeted the Yogi Adityanath government, saying the law and order situation in Uttar Pradesh is "becoming worse".
"Police is registering an FIR against the ruling MP...Policemen were involved in robbing of silver...Stolen goods are being recovered from police station...What a double-engine government of the BJP!," Yadav said in a tweet in Hindi and used the hashtag "#Assi_Harao_BJP_Hatao".
He was apparently referring to the registration of an FIR against BJP Kannauj MP Subrat Pathak for allegedly assaulting police personnel and the recovery of sliver at a policeman's house.
