Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya on Wednesday hit out at the Samajwadi Party (SP) President Akhilesh Yadav alleging that the plank of social justice and Caste Census was not the character of the SP, but a deception to get Other Backward Classes (OBC) votes.
“Social justice/Caste Census is not the character of SP, it is a deception,” said Mr. Maurya, a leading OBC face of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Uttar Pradesh. He added that when Mr. Yadav was the Chief Minister, instead of promoting social justice in the State, goons, criminals, rioters and casteism increased.
“When SP Chief Mr. Akhilesh Yadav was the Chief Minister, instead of social justice, goons, criminals, rioters increased casteism. When the public put an end to SP’s politics of hooliganism, then the message is clear that the reality has been exposed,” wrote the Deputy CM on social networking site Twitter.
