UP Deputy CM Keshav Prasad Maurya Labels SP, Congress With Jibes; Akhilesh Yadav Responds With Sharp Dig At BJP’s Internal Rivalries

Lucknow: Alleging the Samajwadi Party means "hooliganism" and the Congress stands for "pseudoism", Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya on Saturday said the BJP signifies "intense nationalism".

"SP means 'hooliganism', Congress means 'pseudoism' and BJP means 'intense nationalism'," he said on X in Hindi.

सपा मतलब 'लठैतवाद', कांग्रेस मतलब 'छद्मवाद' और भाजपा मतलब 'प्रखर राष्ट्रवाद'।

Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav later took a jibe at the BJP leaders without taking any names stating first is the competition of the 'pradhan' versus 'mukhya', second is of the 'mukhya' versus deputy and third is of the deputy versus deputy.

एक तो प्रधान बनाम मुख्य की प्रतिस्पर्धा है, दूसरी मुख्य बनाम उप की और तीसरी उप बनाम उप की। ये सब एक-दूसरे से आगे निकलने की होड़ में भड़काऊ बयान दे रहे हैं।

जिनको आप कह रहे हैं ‘प्रखर’, उन्हीं की वजह से आप रहे हैं ’बिखर’; कितनी भी कोशिश कर लें आपको नहीं मिलेगा ‘शिखर’।

सलाह:…

"All of them are giving provocative statements in the race to get ahead of each other," Yadav said on X.

The former chief minister also said that those whom you call "prakhar" are the ones because of whom you are scattered ('bikhar').

"No matter how much you try, you will not reach 'shikhar' (peak)," he added.
