‘Deals are not one-sided,’ people of the country are questioning the BJP: Akhilesh Yadav

Samajwadi Party (SP) National President Akhilesh Yadav Saturday launched a scathing attack on the BJP, saying that the people of the country are clearly asking the saffron party about the Indo-US trade deal as “Deals are never one-sided”.

“The people of the country want to know what is the deep secret behind the compulsion to surrender India’s interests,” he questioned.

Making these remarks in a post shared on his social media account, he questioned whether the BJP has any concrete safety net or protection plan to save the country’s farmers, shopkeepers, and industries, or if it only has hollow words and empty promises.

He said that today, the people of the country want to know what is the deep secret behind the compulsion to surrender India’s interests.

The SP president asked whether this entire matter is a one-sided deal, like “made there, delivered here,” in which the country’s interests are being ignored. He questioned whether the BJP government was simply forced to sign on the “dotted line” in the name of a deal.

Akhilesh Yadav said that the BJP government should clarify to the people of the country who is benefiting from these alleged agreements and what the common citizens, farmers, traders, and the industrial sector have gained.

He alleged that the BJP’s policies have been limited to propaganda and showmanship instead of serving the national interest.
