Mr. Akhilesh Yadav, the President of the Samajwadi Party (SP) in Uttar Pradesh, criticised the recent roads at his close aid’s residence.
On the 18th of December, Saturday, Mr. Akhilesh Yadav said, “I have said this time and again that as elections approach.. all this starts happening. Abhi to Income Tax department aaya hai, Enforcement Directorate aayega, CBI aayega (Right now, now the tax department has come… the Enforcement Directorate will come, CBI will come) but the cycle (the Samajwadi Party’s poll symbol) will not stop… its pace will not stop … the BJP will be wiped out of UP. People of the state won’t be fooled. Why was Rajeev Rai not raided a month ago, why now? Because elections are near?” He further said, “The BJP is on the path of the Congress. Earlier when the Congress wanted to scare anyone, they used such tactics and the BJP is following in the footsteps of the Congress.”
The criticism came after the Income Tax (IT) department carried out raids at the residences of the SP leaders Mr. Rajeev Rai, Mr. Manoj Yadav and Mr. Jainendra Yadav. A team from the Income Tax department from Varanasi reached Mr Rai’s home this morning in eastern UP’s Mau district.
Mr. Rajeev Rai said, “I’ve no criminal background or black money. I help people and the government didn’t like it. This is a result of that. If you do anything, they’ll make a video, register an FIR, you’ll fight a case unnecessarily.”
In addition, raids at the residence of Manoj Yadav, the promoter of RCL Group of companies, another associate of Akhilesh Yadav, was also conducted.
The raids were carried out on the morning of the 18th of December, Saturday and are underway.
The timing of the raids, ahead of the Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections 2022 raised questions on the BJP, drawing a lot of criticism.
