Samajwadi Party President and former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav, while discussing the President’s address, surrounded the BJP’s double engine government on Tuesday. But Akhilesh Yadav has often surrounded UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and PM Narendra Modi, so this was not special for the news world and political corridors. Akhilesh Mahakumbh was keeping his point very brilliantly on deaths, infrastructure development, land acquisition for connecting rivers, poor quality of Bundelkhand Expressway and Link Expressway and delay in construction. But in the meantime, he mentioned the Congress at least 3 times directly. In this, he put it in the dock 2 times and also praised Manmohan Singh.
One of them was the issue of caste census. Obviously, this issue has become the most important for Rahul Gandhi and Congress today. The way Akhilesh Yadav attacked the Congress for not being caste census yet was the most special aspect of his speech. The question arises that why did Akhilesh take the right Congress on target as soon as he escaped? Or Akhilesh Yadav said on Rahul Gandhi’s favorite spinning wheel of his father Mulayam Singh Yadav. Mulayam Singh, who is fond of wrestling, loved this bet because the wrestler is tightened by the wrestler’s neck and leg together. Due to which the anti -spinning wheel turns round and there is no longer anywhere. After all, he has to accept his defeat. Akhilesh is also going to hold Rahul Gandhi and Congress from all sides. On the one hand, Aam Aadmi Party is openly campaigned in Delhi, on the other hand, they are surrounded in Lok Sabha. Then slowly we are also saying that we are with the Congress.
Congress is responsible for not getting caste census and not becoming a manufacturing hub!
Starting the discussion in the Lok Sabha on Monday, Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi raised the issue of caste census. Rahul Gandhi keeps promising caste census in every platform and every meeting anyway. Referring to the caste census, Akhilesh Yadav said that caste census is very important in the country. But till date, he has blamed the Congress for not getting caste census. Akhilesh Yadav said that during the UPA government, the Congress used to oppose it earlier, now it is demanding it. If the Congress had supported this census earlier, then it would not have needed to raise this issue in front of the BJP. Akhilesh said that I would like to tell the Congress that we are your partner and we are with you on this issue and will support you later. Now no one can stop caste census. Actually, Akhilesh Yadav has to go into history to understand what he was speaking. During the UPA government, the demand for caste census came towards Lalu Yadav, Mulayam Singh Yadav etc. But at that time the Congress did not want to do caste census.
Akhilesh Yadav also put the responsibility of China out of India. Akhilesh says that China is not attacking us only in one place, snatching the land and is also snatching employment. At the time when the market was opened (in the 90s of the Congress government), our economy was not given attention. If at the same time the manufacturing sector had been given responsibility with responsibility, then perhaps the president would have surpassed China. Today China is ahead, we are behind. Then the Congress does not feel bad, so Akhilesh attacks BJP. It is said that if the Congress party had that way, then why is your path?
Akhilesh Yadav and Congress have now become serious
Akhilesh’s distance from Congress is also being removed. In fact, there were reports of Akhilesh being angry after the ceiling arrangement in the Lok Sabha recently. When the monsoon session was going on after the results in June 2024, Akhilesh Yadav, Awadhesh Prasad and Dimple Yadav used to sit around Opposition Rahul Gandhi in the eighth block. Later, SP MPs have been given a place in the sixth block. Akhilesh objected to why the Congress agreed to sit in the eighth block and behind in the sixth block. Not only this, in the winter session, the Congress was besieging the government on the issue of Adani, then Akhilesh Yadav’s party had made a complete distance from slogans and demonstrations and was not seen standing with Rahul. SP, Aam Aadmi Party said that he wants the house to go. Do not obstruct the proceedings of the House.
When the by -elections were to be held in nine seats in Uttar Pradesh, Akhilesh Yadav announced 7 tickets of SP by keeping the Congress unilateral. While the Congress wanted to contest 4-5 seats. Finally, the Congress had to bow before Akhilesh. SP fought in all nine seats and now in Milkipur, the candidate of SP is contesting elections. The Congress is a completely sideline. However, Akhilesh Yadav had sought seats for SP during Haryana elections from Congress. Which was not found. Kulmilakar, during the Lok Sabha elections between the two parties, the Diomana gradually turned into a tussle.
Meanwhile, the Congress took a stand on the Sambhal issue of UP and Rahul Gandhi-Priyanka Gandhi himself was adamant on going there, then the SP kept silence. After that, when Rahul Gandhi arrived on a Hathras tour on December 12 and met the family of the Dalit girl with whom he was gangraped in 2020. The victim died two weeks later on 28 September 2020 during treatment in Delhi, while SP has also been raising the issue Sambhal and Hathras. But the message went that both SP and Congress are not together on this issue.
There are reasons for separation of both of them
Actually, the Samajwadi Party feels that the Congress is trying to snatch their place in UP. It is known that Dalits and Muslims have been traditional voters of Congress. Akhilesh Yadav is made Chaudhary in Uttar Pradesh on his strength. The Congress is making every effort so that its traditional voters come back to her. This was the reason for the Congress’ overcrowding in Hathras and Sambhal. Even Akhilesh would not like Rahul Gandhi’s overcrowding about caste census. From the conditions that are being created, it seems clear that in future Samajwadi Party and Congress are not going to live together in UP.
