Akhilesh Yadav takes jibe at PM Modi's visit to Varanasi, says 'Apne akhri samay mein Kashi me raha jata hai'
By Team Newsable | First Published Dec 13, 2021, 6:45 PM ISTIn damage control mode, a Samajwadi Party leader stated that Akhilesh Yadav made a political comment and that nothing should be read into it.
Akhilesh Yadav, the head of the Samajwadi Party, made an unparliamentary statement against Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday, suggesting that people visit Benaras in their final days. On the same day that PM Modi opened the first phase of the Kashi Vishwanath Dham in Varanasi, the SP head made 'below the belt' remarks. He thinks it's great that the Kashi Vishwanath programmes in Varanasi are only a month long. PM Modi and other BJP leaders should remain for more than one, two, or three months, as people spend their last days in Banaras, the SP leader was quoted by ANI. Meanwhile, Amit Malviya, a BJP official, criticised Akhilesh Yadav for making 'distasteful' statements on Prime Minister Modi.
According to Malviya, the Samajwadi Party is expected to lose the forthcoming Uttar Pradesh elections in 2022, which is why Akhilesh is making such statements. In damage control mode, a Samajwadi Party leader stated that Akhilesh Yadav made a political comment and that nothing should be read into it. Yadav's comments came after Prime Minister Narendra Modi dedicated the first portion of Varanasi's Kashi Vishwanath Dham.
