Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya has strongly criticised the Congress and the Samajwadi Party (SP) for corruption.

He said, “If there is a mother of corruption, it is the Congress party. When attempts are made to eradicate corruption, the Congress creates obstacles, and the Samajwadi Party is now following the same path.”

Maurya was speaking to the media here on Sunday at the 72nd Senior Volleyball Championship. On the nationwide movement launched by the Congress over MGNREGA, he said, “The demon of corruption in the form of MGNREGA has been vanquished. A new Act has been enacted in the form of Vikshit Bharat G Ram G. It has been the character of the Congress that for every rupee that came in, 85 paise had to be given to middlemen or Congressmen.”

He further added, “Nobody cares about Congress anymore. The Congress raises issues that the public doesn’t like. Akhilesh Yadav has lost his mental balance after losing the Bihar election. Akhilesh Yadav will have to return to Saifai in 2027.”

“Whether the Congress contests elections under the leadership of Priyanka Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi, Sonia Gandhi, or Akhilesh Yadav, they can join forces with whomever they want, but the lotus is going to bloom. Akhilesh Yadav’s PDA is completely fake,” he announced.

Attacking the Samajwadi Party, Maurya said, “SP leaders promote their families, goons, criminals, and mafias. The Ram Lalla temple has been built, the flag has been hoisted, but they haven’t gone to offer prayers yet. A man who offered prayers at the Ram Temple has been apprehended, and a thorough investigation is underway.”
