JDU, the party led by Bihar's CM Nitish Kumar, is infuriated by a statement from Akhilesh Yadav, head of the Samajwadi Party. Amidst the political turbulence surrounding JP in Lucknow, Akhilesh suggested that Nitish should sever ties with BJP.
Responding to Akhilesh's statement, JDU spokesperson Rajiv Ranjan stated, 'Instead of advising Akhilesh, Akhilesh should introspect himself. To what extent has Akhilesh embraced JP's life values?'
The Family in Positions of Power
Rajiv Ranjan further mentioned, Jai Prakash talked about democracy, but within Akhilesh Yadav's party, only internal democracy exists. Family members occupy all main positions in the Assembly, Lok Sabha, Rajya Sabha. Nitish Kumar is a true soldier of JP, and the alliance is running smoothly in Bihar.
Appeal to Withdraw Support from NDA
Essentially, Akhilesh Yadav, the Samajwadi Party chief, appealed to JDU chief Nitish Kumar to withdraw support from the NDA. He mentioned that in UP, BJP's government is preventing socialists from paying homage to JP Narayan.
Desire to Garland JP's Statue
In fact, the SP chief wanted to garland the statue of JP Narayan located at the JPNIC in Lucknow. However, heavy police force had already been deployed there. Akhilesh was initially determined to go to JPNIC but wasn't granted permission. Along with him, a large number of Samajwadi Party workers gathered. Ultimately, Akhilesh, taking a statue and garland from his home, ended up garlanding JP's statue right in front of his residence.
