Battle for UP: Akhilesh promises ghee, milk, sugar along with free ration

Lucknow, March 3 (SocialNews.XYZ) Samajwadi Party (SP) president Akhilesh Yadav said that people will get free ration along with milk, sugar, oil and ghee for the whole year if he forms the government in Uttar Pradesh.

Akhilesh said that people are getting free ration only up to March in the incumbent BJP government, but if they come to power people will get free ration along with 1kg each of oil, ghee and milk powder, for the whole year.

He attacked Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, saying that the latter had become restless after seeing SP's growing popularity.

He added that 300 units of electricity and medical treatment for poor will also be free.

The SP chief said that when Yogi Adityanath was not able to bring his home on the track how he could make others' homes better.

"Drainage channels and sever were not made in Gorakhpur. Instead of going in the metro, people travelled in boats during monsoon and now people have made up their mind to write history," he said in a statement.

"BJP leaders are liars. No farmer got double income and no one even got full payment of crops. They stole 5kg from bag of 10kg of ration and the price of cylinder reached to Rs 1,000 from 400. They claim to give 24-hour power supply but the power units were made by SP government."

He said that as many of the youth had to suffer due to lack of recruitment during the BJP government and promised to relax the age limits for youth in government jobs when he comes to power.

Akhilesh also ridiculed the BJP by saying that those who claim to make missiles were not able to make even matchsticks.
