Former Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav has demanded the Election Commission of India to take cognizance alleging that his helicopter in Delhi was stopped by the Bharatiya Janata Party-led Central government ahead of his press conference in Muzaffarnagar.
Yadav on Friday said, “The BJP can do anything before the elections.”
“If someone has to go to a press conference and authorities make him wait for about two hours before boarding the helicopter, how will one reach the destination? I hope the Election Commission should take cognizance of this,” Akhilesh Yadav told ANI.
According to the SP chief’s schedule, his press conference in Muzaffarnagar was scheduled at around 1 pm on Friday, but he was in Delhi till around 2.30 pm.
He further said, “People told me at the airport that BJP leaders had taken flight before me. I was told this by air traffic officials. BJP leaders did not have to wait whereas I had to wait for more than two hours. Whatever BJP does, the people of Uttar Pradesh will give a befitting reply and remove them out of power.”
