Akhilesh Yadav may return to party, but won’t to power: BJP

NEW DELHI: Mocking the Samajwadi Party’s decision to revoke expulsion of Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav, BJP on Saturday said he may have returned to the party but will not to power after the assembly polls, as his five-year report card is rife with “failures”.

Whatever attempts and “drama” SP chief Mulayam Singh Yadav and his son Akhilesh may perform, they won’t cut any ice with the people, the BJP said, claiming that voters have made up their mind to vote the BJP to power for the state’s development.

“There can be a comeback of the chief minister to his party which had expelled him but not to power as his government’s report card is full of failures. People have made up their mind to get rid of him and SP. His government encouraged only corruption and crime, and did nothing for the common man,” BJP national secretary Shrikant Sharma said.
