Lucknow: Destroying any challenges from Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, Deputy Uttar Pradesh Cm Keshav Prasad Maurya on Sunday surprised him to call him “Twitter Vadra” and said it would be a great achievement for him if Congress defended the assembly poll next year.
Senior BJP leader also set aside the contest from the Jamajwadi Party (SP) and the Bahujan Party (BSP), said they must feel happy if they secured the number of seats they got in the 2017 polls.
Maurya also refused to attach great importance to the Aam Aam and Aim Asaduddin Owaisa, described them as “Voti of Sound).
Asked about who would be a cm face from BJP in the election, Maurya, who lost the race to Yogi Adityanath was last heard, said it was the central leadership of his party who decided after consultation with legislators.
Reducing the announcement carried out by the Congress leader that his party will provide 40 percent of tickets to women, Maurya said it would be a “great achievement” for Congress if it repeated the achievements of seven MLA in the poll.
“Congress is not above.
In the 2014 Lok Sabha poll, they got two parliamentarians from above and in 2019 the selection of Lok Sabha, diminished into a member of parliament,” he said.
“Similarly, in the election of 2017 assembly, Congress received seven seats and in a 2022 poll, if successfully repeating the number seven, then it would be a big achievement,” he told PTI in an interview.
“Almost the same is the condition of SP and BSP, whose mastery has not forgotten, and will never forget as corruption, crime, encouragement for the mafia, cashier and appeasement,” said Maurya.
SP has pocketed 47 seats from 403 in previous elections while the Maywati Party must be satisfied with 19 seats.
Maurya said even though both parties talked about retreating, Dalit and the top caste, they were not good sympathizers from anyone.
“They just want to get strength, exploit people and fill their bags with public money,” Maurya’s suspicion.
When asked if he felt that Priyanka had formed himself as an alternative to BJP above, Maurya said, “I think you (media) see it more in the role of an opposition.
I call Priyanka Gandhi Vadra as Twitter Vadra.
I don’t think that except those who are Interested in getting their photos clicked, there are people in Congress.
“” Yes, they have the expertise in getting their photographs clicked, both Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, Rahul Gandhi or other Congress leaders.
In their photo competition clicked them in front of SP and BSP.
But this three parties failed to make a place in the public heart, “he said.
On the question that would be the face of CM from BJP, Maurya said, “Who is I to decide Yogi Adityanathji is respected is our main minister, and Yogiji and we make efforts to ensure victory for BJP in general elections, “he added.
Maurya, who as Head of the BJP State Unit has played an important role in mobilizing support from the non-Yadav OBC caste for the party in the 2017 election, saying there is no “no challenge” to BJP.
“In the election of the 2017 assembly, we won 325 seats and our efforts is how we can win more than 325 seats today.
This is a challenge for us,” he said.
Most promises made by the party to people have been fulfilled and this has been done in a span of three and a half years, he claims, adding that about one and a half lost to Covid-19.
The work carried out by the government will comprehensively exceed the work done by SP and BSP in 15 years, he claims.
At SP Head Akhilesh Yadav claimed that his party would win 400 seats, Maurya said, “How many chairs claimed by Akhilesh Yadav to win in the 2014 Sabha poll and in the 2017 assembly election? In the Lok Sabha 2017 poll, he even dreamed.
Being prime minister.
Finally, SP claims found hollow.
“” On the ground, their organization has no one except criminals and mafia.
They do politics on the basis of caste and appeasement, from where Uttar Pradesh came out, “he said.
In opposition parties using “soft-hindutva”, Maurya said, “This is a BJP ideological victory.
