SENIOR CONGRESS leader Satya Prakash Malviya said by levelling charges of phone-tapping on Congress president Sonia Gandhi, Chief Minister Mulayam Singh Yadav was trying to divert people’s attention from the failure and misdeeds of his government.
Addressing a meeting of party workers at Preetam Nagar here on Saturday, Malviya said people of the State knew very well that Yadav and Amar Singh were misutilising funds of the State Government.
“Yadav is in a habit of accusing Sonia Gandhi in every matter, but he forgets that the State Government was provided huge funds for development by the Centre,” he said.
Now, those funds were being diverted for the development of Saifai, the native village of Yadav, he added. Malviya has demanded a high-level probe into the expenses incurred on the Saifai Mahotsav.
He exhorted party workers to wage a war against the Samajwadi Party-led State Government till Yadav’s ouster. Malviya further said by according status of a State guest to expelled Bharatiya Janata Party leader Uma Bharti, the CM had exposed his communal face.
Bharti was an accused in the Ayodhya demolition case, and the case was still pending in court, but Yadav ignored political ethics by according State guest status to Bharti, Malviya added.
