UP will elect a Samajwadi Party government in 2027: Akhilesh Yadav

Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Wednesday expressed confidence that the people of Uttar Pradesh will vote his party to power in 2027.

Taking a swipe at the BJP, he alleged that it does not function like a political party but rather operates like a “gang,” and is consistently hatching conspiracies to defame the Samajwadi Party.

Addressing a “Digital Democracy Dialogue” programme organised at the Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia Auditorium, located at the party’s state headquarters here, Akhilesh Yadav said that democracy is currently under threat and emphasised that dialogue, social harmony, and a positive mindset are essential to strengthen it.

He asserted that the lives of the country’s citizens are in peril, and that in today’s political landscape, a positive direction can only be charted through the path of PDA (Pichhda—Backward Classes, Dalit, and Minorities). No campaign can succeed without a clear vision and a positive outlook.

Akhilesh Yadav stated that the Samajwadi ideology has always provided direction to the country and society, whereas the BJP governments have created an atmosphere of despair and frustration among the public. He alleged that the government is misusing the administrative machinery to create hurdles for the opposition, but affirmed that the Samajwadi Party is prepared to face every challenge.

He advised party workers to maintain simplicity in their conduct and language, remain disciplined, and refrain from provoking anyone. He emphasised that the Samajwadi Party is a party guided by principles and never compromises on them.

Akhilesh Yadav noted that the Samajwadi Party worked towards digital empowerment by distributing laptops to the youth, whereas the BJP utilises digital platforms solely for its own self-serving interests. He appealed to the party workers to counter the BJP’s “malicious propaganda” with truth and to remain vigilant against rumours.
