Lucknow, August 05 (HS): Uproar and sloganeering continued in the monsoon
session of the Uttar Pradesh Legislative Assembly on Wednesday. Expressing
displeasure over the Samajwadi Party's (SP) uproar and protests in the House,
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said that the SP is anti-democracy, anti-Dalit,
and anti-social. It has no interest in development, which is why it is not
discussing development issues during the supplementary budget debate. However,
the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government's commitment is and will remain to
development.
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, speaking to the media, labeled the Samajwadi
Party as anti-development, anti-youth, anti-women, and anti-democracy.
He
stated that the state government presented a supplementary budget of over Rs. 59,000
crore, but the Samajwadi Party (SP) created various obstacles. This
supplementary budget included proposals for honorarium increases for Anganwadi
workers, cooks, ration dealers, watchmen, and ASHA workers, and for the
construction of expressways. This is intended to promote the development of all
sections of society. Furthermore, the supplementary budget also includes
provisions for the installation, maintenance, and construction of boundary
walls for statues of Constitution-maker Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar, Saint Ravidas,
social reformer Jyotiba Phule, and Lokmata Ahilyabai. However, the Samajwadi
Party members displayed their anti-Dalit stance in the House, demonstrating
their lack of respect for these great figures.
Speaking to the media outside the Assembly, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath
said that the Samajwadi Party had created obstacles in the honorarium of
thousands of Shikshamitras in the state, but our government has increased the
honorarium to Rs. 18,000 and also increased the honorarium of instructors.
Similarly, the supplementary budget includes plans and proposals for the
development of the state, as well as suggestions and work given by various
public representatives, but the SP is against development and democracy. We
want to assure the people of the state that despite the anti-development
attitude of the Samajwadi Party, the double-engine government will continue to
work for the development of the state and will not allow any kind of deficiency
in development.
