Lucknow: Samajwadi Party National President Akhilesh Yadav knows that as long as the BJP has a leader like Keshav Prasad Maurya in Uttar Pradesh, it is difficult for the SP to return to UP. That is why the entire Samajwadi Party attacks Keshav Maurya unitedly. The backward leaders in BJP who are trying to milk political capital in the name of backward have become so blinded by jealousy that they have turned their backs on Keshav. Even if the BJP is being surrounded under the guise of Keshav. Keshav is fighting as Abhimanyu in this battle and the so-called BJP stalwarts are silently watching the spectacle.
Samajwadi Party knows that BJP has the strongest backward leader Keshav Maurya, so Akhilesh, Ramgopal, Shivpal and Swami Prasad Maurya all together attack Keshav. There are dozens of backward leaders but they have remained mere fodder and symbols. Keshav has to fight the opposition alone.
He also attacks the opposition and also defends the attacks of the opposition. Whereas on the issue of Dalits and Backwards, the upper caste leaders of BJP keep themselves away. The latest case is of Unnao, where Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya, who visited on Friday, created a sensation by supporting caste census.
Uttar Pradesh’s number one Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya, who is trying to save the Bharatiya Janata Party which is being surrounded in UP-Bihar due to caste census, Ramcharitmanas said that I support the caste census. But in the evening, the national general secretary of the Samajwadi Party, Swami Prasad Maurya, quoted Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar in a tweet, and the BJP again came on the back foot.
Deputy CM Keshav Prasad Maurya, who reached Unnao on Friday, said regarding the caste census that I am not against the caste census, but in support. This should happen, there is nothing wrong in it. Taking a dig at this, Samajwadi Party’s chief general secretary Ram Gopal Yadav said that no one listens to Keshav Maurya in the BJP. SP chief Akhilesh Yadav said about caste census that caste there should be a census. Many political parties of the country are in favor of this. Samajwadi Party MLAs, MPs will go from village to village to create awareness among the people. In some time, the leadership of the party will go to the villages and make people aware about it, because only when the census is done, it will be possible that how to connect the people with the development plans. For which the SP has intensified its preparations.
It is also being speculated that the SP may raise this issue in the House as well. It is believed that Keshav Maurya gave this statement to give a political blow to Akhilesh Yadav. Swami Prasad Maurya has again created a political stir by tweeting on Saturday, even before the matter heated up in the evening.
