Akhilesh Yadav, Chairman of the Samajwadi Party, claimed to have praised the Kashi Vishwanath Corridor, which will be inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Varanasi on Monday, just before Uttar Pradesh’s parliamentary vote early next year.
Former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav stated that the Kashi Vishwanath Corridor project was approved by his government and he has written evidence.
“Just to prevent the public from asking this question, they brought the Kashi Vishwanath corridor. If any cabinet passes through the Kashi Vishwanath corridor, it is the government of the Samajwadi Party,” Akhilesh told reporters PTI on Sunday, according to the news agency.
“We will provide you with documents. Because this time, we will speak with evidence,” he added. Before the Bharatiya Janata Party formed a government, the Samajwadi Party, led by Yadav, took power in Uttar Pradesh from 2012 to 2017. At the helm is Yogi Adityanath.
“The chronology of Kashi Vishwanath Corridor: Kro (Rupee) was assigned to the Samajwadi party regime. The SP government started to acquire these buildings for the corridor,” Akhilesh later said in a Hindi tweet.
“Remuneration was determined for the temple staff.’paidaljeevi’ (pedestrians) should tell us why the Varuna River cleaning operation carried out by the SP government was stopped and what happened to the subway (railway)?” he asked. The crucial UP parliamentary election is approaching, and the BJP and SP have intensified their war of words because the ruling party wants to retain its power, while the opposition party wants to make a comeback in the state.
Yadav has claimed in recent weeks that his government has started or approved projects being initiated by the BJP government, including the Purvanchal Express and Saryu Canal Nation projects.
Yadav also stated that the BJP government has formulated a series of plans to divert attention from Prime Minister Modi’s “failure” to double farmers’ incomes.
“You all know who promised to double the income of farmers. With the price increase today, how can the income of farmers double without fertilizer?” PTI quoted Akhilesh and told reporters.
PM Modi will unveil the first phase of the Kashi Vishwanath Corridor on Monday, which will cost approximately Rs 339 crore. According to a statement from the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO), Prime Minister Modi will visit the Kashvishwanath Temple and pray before the inauguration at 1 pm.
The corridor is expected to promote tourism in this ancient city, which is also the constituency of Prime Minister Modi’s House of Commons.
