BJP banks on Adityanath, Modi's development pitch to secure third successive victory in Jalaun
Jalaun (UP): Ram Babu Nishad looks back to a time when locals would avoid even attending weddings in the night. «Pata nahi hota tha ghar sahi salamat lautenge ki nahi,» he says.
Once infamous as a haven for dacoits and mafia, the BJP is banking on Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's law-and-order and development pitch to secure a third consecutive victory from the Jalaun Lok Sabha seat.
The opposition, however, has been accusing the BJP of lying over its claims.
A Samajwadi Party leader says the BJP is spreading «lies» about the party patronising goons while governing the state and lauded its chief Akhilesh Yadav who, he said, «is always ready to solve people's problems».
