Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh): Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Monday expressed confidence in the Bharatiya Janata Party winning the state Assembly polls by securing over 300 seats and said that the elections are a fight between 80 versus 20, wherein 80 per cent are those who back progress while 20 per cent people oppose everything and have a negative attitude.<\/p>\n
In an exclusive interview with ANI, Adityanath said that after the first phase of the Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections there is no doubt about the BJP forming the government.<\/p>\n
\u201cUnder the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and with the blessing of the people, the double-engine government is coming back for the tenure. Elections have taken an 80 versus 20 direction. Samajwadi Party, Bahujan Samaj Party and Congress are upset and are on the back foot after the first phase,\u201d he told ANI.<\/p>\n
Reacting to SP chief Akhilesh Yadav\u2019s remarks of BJP cooling down after the first phase of elections, he said, \u201cThe public\u2019s response has been cold towards Samajwadi Party in the first phase of the election. People Bare warm towards the BJP and the party is going to the public with issues, our work is solid and our intentions are honest.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI can say with confidence that the BJP will form the government in the state,\u201d he reiterated.<\/p>\n
CM Adityanath countered the allegations of the opposition that the BJP does not have any real issues and said the party has issued its election manifesto and worked honestly on issues such as economic development and uplift of the poor.
\nExplaining what he means by the 80 versus 20 for the Uttar Pradesh elections, the Chief Minister said, \u201c80 per cent are those people who are happy with the state government\u2019s agenda of security, who appreciate the public welfare schemes of the state government. Those who like development. Those who got a chance to get their work (at government offices) done in an honest and transparent way.\u201d<\/p>\n
Those people who have experienced a positive change in their lives and appreciate the state government\u2019s efforts constitute 80 per cent, he told ANI.<\/p>\n
\u201c20 per cent are those people who always oppose everything. They opposed everything before and will continue doing so now. They have negative thinking. They back money and crime and will remain so. This is how this election is that of 80 versus 20,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
After the first phase of the elections, it is clear that it really is a poll of 80 versus 20, Adityanath said. \u201c80 per cent of people have supported BJP, and 20 per cent are those who wanted to oppose. (They) opposed vaccine (COVID), Ann Yojana, Expressways, One District One Medical College plan\u2026They have opposed everything and will continue doing so,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
