Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India], May 21 (ANI): A poster reading “Akhilesh ko dur bhagana hai, Brahmanon ka samman bachana hai” has come up in Uttar Pradesh, further escalating tensions between Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak and Samajwadi Party (SP) chief Akhilesh Yadav.
The poster was reportedly put up by BJP Youth Morcha’s General Secretary Amit Tripathi at the GPO intersection in Hazratganj.
The poster further reads, “Bhramin Brajesh Pathak ji k Sanman m, Yuva Morcha maidan m, (In honor of Brahmin “Brajesh Pathak”, the Youth Morcha takes the field)”
The poster has been put up targeting Akhilesh Yadav, making a reference to saving the honor of Brahmins.
“Akhilesh Ji! enough of the deceit, enough of the anti-Brahmin game, make your anti-Brahmin agents understand, or else… the whole caste politics game will be exposed,” the poster in Hindi reads further.
The row is the latest in a spat that began after the SP’s official X handle posted a critical remark aimed at Pathak, prompting him to label the SP’s politics as rooted in “Muslim appeasement”.
Earlier, posters reading “Akhilesh Yadav maafi maango” have appeared in Lucknow, escalating tensions between the Samajwadi Party (SP) and Uttar Pradesh Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak.
The posters, reportedly put up by supporters of Pathak at the 1090 crossing, demand an apology from SP chief Akhilesh Yadav and condemn alleged derogatory remarks made by the SP’s official ‘X’ handle against Pathak.
Earlier, In a lengthy post on X, UP Deputy CM Brijesh Pathak has mocked SP Chief Akhilesh Yadav’s response to an earlier query, alleging that the SP leader had resorted to a poorly crafted “thesis” that confused political science with “home science.”
“@yadavakhilesh, Yes, in response to my question, you got your team to write a long thesis and even posted it on social media. But I advise you to read such a thesis written by children once before posting it. They may not have paid attention, and you may not have read it out of habit. In this process, you made the mistake of typing the answer using the key of Home Science. The paper was in Political Science. I am asking you about the DNA of your party, Akhilesh ji. If you are speechless, then apologise and end the conversation. Accepting the mistake when you do not have an answer is a sign of a healthy tradition. By changing the goal post again and again, in this desperation to avoid my question about the DNA of the Samajwadi Party, you are getting exposed even more. Why are you so scared of the question about the DNA of the Samajwadi Party?” he said in X post.
Pathak challenged Yadav to address the alleged dark legacy of the SP, claiming that discussing the party’s DNA would reveal connections to notorious figures like Atiq Ahmed and Mukhtar Ansari, the Muzaffarnagar riots, the firing on kar sevaks during the Ram Mandir movement, and scams like the Gomti River Front and mining controversies.
“Is it because as soon as this issue is discussed, the door of your Samajwadi Party’s DNA will open automatically with some automatic sensor. Then, one by one, the pictures of the mafias of your era will come out. Then the shadows of mafias like Atiq and Mukhta, who flourished in the DNA of the Samajwadi Party, will start emerging. Then the Muzaffarnagar riots will come out of the sleeve, hissing. Then the memories of the firing on Hindus during the Ram Mandir Kar Seva will stun the state. Then, some Atiq will come out of his grave and claim that he will get the matter settled between you and your father. Then the stink of the filth of corruption will start coming from the Gomti River Front. Then the files of the mining scam will come out of the cupboards and start going from house to house,” he said in X post.
Earlier on Saturday, the Bharatiya Janata Party filed an FIR against the media cell of the Samajwadi Party for making ‘derogatory remarks’ against Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak on the party’s social media account on X. (ANI)
