Amar Singh blames Akhilesh over Congress tie-up Last Updated : 10 Mar 2017 01:14:32 PM IST (File photo)
Expelled Samajwadi Party leader Amar Singh on Friday blamed Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadavs move to align with the Congress for the expected good showing of the BJP in the state.
Amar Singh flayed the Akhilesh Yadav government for corruption and non-development and hailed Prime Minister Narendra Modi for taking courageous decisions.
"Modi should thank (Congress Vice President) Rahul Gandhi and Akhilesh for BJP's performance in the state," Singh told News18.
"From 'donkey' to 'terrorist' to 'pagal Modi', filthiest words were used to attack the Prime Minister. They (Rahul Gandhi and Akhilesh Yadav) neither had any issue nor any concrete plan for the polls.
"They talked about Metro rail which is still to come into existence, they talked about roads which are full of potholes.
"So Modi isn't wrong when he says there has been no development (in Uttar Pradesh)," he said.
"Akhilesh had admitted but for the feud with the family, he would never have aligned with the Congress. So this alliance was a compulsion," said Amar Singh, adding the tie-up disillusioned Yadav and Muslim voters.
The result of the Uttar Pradesh, Goa, Punjab, Manipur and Uttarakhand assembly polls will be declared on Saturday.IANS For Latest Updates Please-
