Azam Khan responsible for UP government's failure: Sadhvi Niranjan Jyoti

BAREILLY: Union Minister Sadhvi Niranjan Jyoti held Uttar Pradesh minister Azam Khan responsible for the failure of the state government.

"The state government is being run by Azam due to which it is a failure and the crime graph is on the rise," she said yesterday, adding, "Incidents of murder, rape and loot have increased during the present SP regime."

"By giving Rs 200 crore to farmers and Rs 300 crore to Saifai in Etawah district, Akhilesh Yadav government's dual character has come to the fore," Jyoti said.

The UP government is more worried for Saifai than the plight of the farmers, she added.

Praising the Narendra Modi government, the Union Minister said that all sections of the society have been taken care of by the BJP-led Central government.
