Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Sunday sharpened his attack on the Bharatiya Janata Party, setting a target of reducing the BJP’s vote by 27,000 in every Uttar Pradesh Assembly constituency in the 2027 elections.
In this, we have decided that in the 2027 assembly elections, we will work to increase 27,000 votes in every assembly seat. That means we will reduce 27,000 votes of the BJP,’ Yadav said. He said 46cases of statue vandalism were recorded during the first Yogi Adityanath government between 2017 and 2022, while 105 cases were reported during the second term from 2022 till date.
Yadav cited figures which, according to him, showed an increase in reported cases during the BJP government’s tenure.
Time and again, they have caused distress to everyone,’ he said. ‘I want to tell all our Muslim brothers that we are grateful to them for the patience and the spirit of goodwill they have shown,’ Yadav said. We will also expand the use of AI and remote sensing in the medical field,’ he said.

Yadav accused the state government of failing to ensure adequate returns for farmers and alleged irregularities in land acquisition, particularly in Ayodhya. ‘Farmers are not getting the right price for their crops. The BJP has taken land from farmers but not given the correct circle rate. Major land scams have taken place in Ayodhya. ‘Upon coming to power, our government will use remote sensing technology in the agriculture sector.
