Addressing a rally in Firozabad on Saturday, Samajwadi Party (SP) president Akhilesh Yadav cautioned voters that if the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) come back to power, it may bring such a law which will take away all the rights of farmers and marginalised communities.
Calling the 2024 Lok Sabha polls as the election to save India’s democracy, Mr. Yadav alleged that the BJP deliberately didn’t undertake the caste census exercise as it is afraid of giving legitimate rights to Backwards and marginalised sections.
“On June 4, the government of the socialists will be formed. On the first day, permanent jobs and permanent recruitment will be done. Work will be done to ensure that everyone gets their rights as per reservation. This 2024 Lok Sabha election is not only our election but also the election of the coming generations. Just like the Samudra manthan (churning of the ocean) was done, this election is for saving the constitution and democracy,” he said in Firozabad, supporting the SP candidate Akshay Yadav.
