BJP Rigged UP Bypolls, Will Give Details After Results Are Out: Akhilesh Yadav
News 18A day before the announcement of the results for bye-elections to seven Assembly constituencies in Uttar Pradesh, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Monday accused the BJP of rigging the elections in its favour. At a press conference after a number of former lawmakers from the BSP and the Congress joined the party, Yadav said, “The BJP has done ‘dhandhli’, ‘dhokha’ and whatever it could by the administration. The government had made such an arrangement that the voters could not come out.” “I will give detailed information after the results of the bye-election are declared on November 10,” he said. The leaders who joined the SP were former Bahujan Samaj Party MPs Kailash Nath Singh Yadav and Kaiser Jahan, former Congress MP Bal Kumar Patel, and former MLAs Ram Singh Patel, Sunil Kumar Yadav, Ramesh Rahi and Dhirendra Prakash.
