Samajwadi Party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav at the 'Desh Banao, Desh Bachao' rally at Parade Ground in Allahabad.
Uttar Pradesh chief minister Akhilesh Yadav addressed the 'Desh Banao, Desh Bachao' rally at Parade Ground in Allahabad today.
Here are the highlights: - I still have two years left in power, our government has given 'janta ka paisa to janta'.
- In Vidhan Sabha, there was a lot of discussion, but Opposition couldn't raise questions against us. We've done well in all fields.
- Previous government only signed Memorandums of Understanding, we will implement those.
- Samajwadi Party should have a special role in whatever government is formed in Uttar Pradesh. Our schemes have been adopted by others.
- Coming elections are very crucial for Samajwadi Party.
Mulayam Singh announces Samajwadi Party's Lok Sabha candidates, urges people to vote for them:
- The previous 'kumbh' increased respect for Allahabad in the world.
- America was amazed at how so many people were handled.
- This is 'kumbh ki zameen', most 'mahatvapoorn' place in India.
- Modi has said many things, I am taking his name intentionally.
- When you did 'katleyaam in Gujarat', you threatened me that if I lost my life, you wouldn't be responsible.
- But I still went to Gujarat, as I was not worried about my life.
- BJP and AAP are holding rallies to compete with each other. But the biggest rally is ours in Allahabad.
- You spent crores to get people to Lucknow, but they've come here walking to hear us. We are the real power.
- This time, it is not a fight of numbers, but of development.
- Soniaji built good roads only from Lucknow to Rae Bareli; Samajwadi Party made good roads from Lucknow to Allahabad.
- Why is Soniaji only concerned about Rae Bareli? She's a national leader. Whereas Samajwadi Party is concerned about the whole country.
- Modi sahab you kill Muslims and then apologize. Do you think we are fools?
- Gujarat has dirty rivers, 70% of women in Gujarat are malnourished.
- Children are also malnourished there. Lot of people are unwell and unhappy.
- Please answer all these issues in Lucknow today.
- Don't tell us 'chaati chaudi karo'
- When I went to Ahmedabad, one lady took off her clothes and showed me her injured body.
- She said she could only show her pain to Mulayam.
- You have done this to the women in Gujarat.
- I have come to make your 'jhooth benakaab' here.
- Our armies have shrunk in Congress presence.
- Tibet is our 'pehredaar', it should have been protected. But the BJP is okay with Tibet being part of China.
- Today we face danger from China even in Arunachal Pradesh.
- Our Army is ready, we can destroy them, what is the problem if we fight to save ourselves? I had said this when I was the defence minister.
- The current government has no courage.
- I never thought that Bihar leaders would do 'chaploosi of Congress and BJP leaders.
- Earlier Bihar was a progressive nation.
- Both BJP and Congress are scared right now. They are getting candidates from here and there.
- I am happy that not one person has left Samajwadi Party to join the Congress and the BJP.
- Population is increasing but 30% farming land has reduced.
- When i raised this point, all they said is 'mulayam ka sawal gambhir hai' but they didn't have an answer.
- Make correct lists of the poor. Help the farmers, they send food to soldiers. Make a strategy.
