RAJIV NAYAN AGRAWAL

ARA---------------------------Former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister and Samajwadi Party (SP) President Akhilesh Yadav reached Ara on Saturday to address a public meeting as part of Rahul Gandhi and Tejashwi Yadav's Voter Rights Yatra in Bihar. At the historic Ramna Maidan, he said that the way Rahul Gandhi and Tejashwi Yadav's Voter Rights Yatra is getting support from the youth and people of Bihar, it shows that this time the power is going to change.

Akhilesh Yadav called the BJP, government and officials a part of the electoral alliance and called them "Teen Tigada" and claimed that the India alliance will break these powers. Referring to Ayodhya in Uttar Pradesh, he said that just as the BJP was defeated in Awadh, similarly now it is the responsibility of the people to remove the BJP from Magadh.

In the meeting, Akhilesh gave the slogan - "Abki baar Bihar se BJP bahar" - and appealed to the people to bring Tejashwi Yadav to power. He termed the ongoing SIR (SIR) in Bihar as a "crazy decision" and said that first the right to vote will be taken away, then the rights to ration and jobs will be affected. Targeting the Election Commission, he called it a "jugaad commission".

Citing international events, Akhilesh said that the leaders who used to scare others are themselves affected by the policies of America today. He referred to the tariff imposed by the US on India and said that the BJP is avoiding speaking on this issue.
