Farmers, Youth and Minorities Among Groups Cited in Akhlash Yadav’s Attack on BJP

In a detailed statement posted on X, Akhlash Yadav, the Samajwadi Party’s national president, singled out several vulnerable sections of society that he says have been neglected by the BJP‑led government in Uttar Pradesh. He listed farmers, daily‑wage laborers, young job‑seekers, students, and minority communities as the primary victims of policies he described as corrupt and indifferent.

Yadav alleged that the BJP has failed to provide essential inputs to farmers such as quality fertilizer, reliable irrigation water and affordable electricity, leaving them unable to protect their crops from stray animals and to earn a fair price for their produce. He also claimed that rising inflation has made food, medicines and education prohibitively expensive for ordinary families.

The SP chief further accused the party of targeting minority groups through alleged injustices, including the mishandling of a high‑profile funeral and the use of derogatory language against teachers, journalists and honest officials. He warned that the BJP’s alleged attempts to dismantle statues of historic figures and to attack religious leaders are part of a broader strategy to undermine constitutional values.

Yadav also highlighted the plight of youth, noting that the government’s alleged interference in recruitment processes for UPSC, SSC, military and other examinations has created a climate of uncertainty and unfairness. He said that promises of job creation have not materialised, and that the party’s alleged practice of awarding contracts to out‑of‑state firms has hurt local businesses.

Concluding his remarks, Yadav said that the public’s patience is wearing thin, and that the BJP’s claim of "zero tolerance" for crime is ineffective when law‑breakers appear to enjoy impunity.
