Today no mafia in the entire Uttar Pradesh has the courage to do anything wrong. Mother and sisters are completely safe. In the last five years, there has been an exodus of mafia under the BJP rule. Mafia of Uttar Pradesh is now only three places. Either out of state or in jail or eager to become MLA in Akhilesh Yadav's list. Our Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has done the work of straightening the mafia by turning it upside down," said Shah.The BJP leader said that the party has worked for the transformation of Uttar Pradesh and Modi has done the work of securing the country."Crores of rupees are being recovered in the raids of their loved ones. That money belonged to SP goons. BJP has worked to transform Uttar Pradesh. PM Modi has done the work of securing the country. If the BJP government is formed in Uttar Pradesh, then the hands of Modi will be strong," he said.In a raid at perfume trader, Rs 250 crore was recovered.

Akhilesh, what is your problem with raid?" he added.Shah further said that after the abrogation of Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir not even a single stone was pelted at that time."Samajwadi Party, Bahujan Samaj Party and Congress opposed the abrogation of Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir and had said that there would be violence there, but not even a single stone was pelted at that time. Today Kashmir is an integral part of Mother India. When Congress, SP was in the BSP government, terrorists used to come from Pakistan, take away the heads of soldiers. Today no terrorist dares to do anything," said the Union Minister.He further said that PM Modi did work of securing the country."Responding to the attack in Pulwama, PM Modi did a surgical strike and entered Pakistan's house and eliminated the terrorists.

Who kept Azam Khan on his lap? Where are all these today? In between, the SP-BSP supported the Sonia-Manmohan government for 10 years. The Congress government ran from 2004 to 2014, it was supported by the SP-BSP. Today I want to ask Congress what SP-BSP has given to the state," he said.He said that the UPA government gave Rs 66 thousand crore to UP in 2014-15 while the Modi government has given more than Rs 1.46 lakh crore in this budget for the development of the state."The mafia was sitting in the entire state by grabbing land worth more than 2 thousand crores. I want to ask Behen and Akhilesh Babu whether there was any involvement in this or not," Shah asked.The Home Minister said that in Modi government is doing the work of transferring Rs 6,000 per year in the bank accounts of crores of farmers of the country."In the SP-BSP governments, farmers' crops were not bought. Modi government is buying farmers' crops at MSP. The money for the purchase of crops is being deposited directly into the bank account of the farmers. The Modi government is doing the work of transferring Rs 6,000 per year in the bank accounts of crores of farmers of the country," said the BJP leader.The Home Minister said that on one hand Kalyan Singh happily gave the chief minister's chair for the Ram temple on the other hand there was the SP government who opened fire on kar sevaks."Our leader Narendra Modi gave Padma Vibhushan to Kalyan Singh. He happily sacrificed his CM's chair for Ram Janmabhoomi. But the SP government had opened fire on kar sevaks," he added.Taking a jibe at the alliance formed by Samajwadi Party and Rashtriya Lok Dal (RLD), Union Home Minister said "In the past, Akhilesh had made Jayant Chaudhary sit with him. Jayant feels that if his government is formed, he will be heard. Jayant, don't misunderstand, the person who did not listen to his father and uncle, what will he listen to you? If the SP government is formed, Jayant Babu will be outside Azam Khan will be inside."Uttar Pradesh will go to the polls for its 403-member assembly in seven phases on February 10, 14, 20, 23, 27 and March 3 and 7.
