‘Only freebies’: Will Akhilesh-Yogi manifesto work magic on voters? | UP Polls

It’s raining freebies in the election manifesto of BJP and the Samajwadi Party ahead of the assembly elections in Uttar Pradesh. While BJP promised free electricity for farmers for agriculture in the next five years and focus on women empowerment in its ‘Sankalp Patra’, Akhilesh promised to compensate sugarcane farmers in the state within 15 days if Samajwadi Party is voted to power in ‘Samajwadi Vachan Patra’. BJP’s Anil Yadav has hailed the manifesto as one of the best so far. Further when questioned about the Jayant Chaudhary equation, he claims that was a ‘temporary move’. In this highlight from Poll Baazi, Hindustan Times’ Sunita Aron and CVoter CEO Yashwant Deshmukh decode if the pre-poll promises by Akhilesh and Yogi would affect the voters in any way. Watch for more details.
