He alleged that Akhilesh is trying to gain political advantage as Scheduled Caste communities have distanced themselves from him and emphasized that the public sees through his duplicity.
He asserted that BJP workers consistently serve all sections of society, particularly Scheduled Castes, and that Akhilesh’s political tricks will fail, as the party remains focused on real issues and social welfare.
