The voting dates for 9 assembly seats in Uttar Pradesh have been changed. Now Samajwadi party National President akhilesh yadav has commented on this. During the election campaign in Ghaziabad, akhilesh yadav said that the dates have been changed due to fear of defeat. Akhilesh addressed a meeting of workers organized in support of Samajwadi party candidate Singh raj Jatav for the assembly by-election in Mussoorie, Ghaziabad. However, before this akhilesh yadav had also reacted to this issue through social media.
The SP chief had said that if we postpone, we will lose even worse! First the Milkipur by-election was postponed, now the date of by-elections for the remaining seats, bjp was never so weak. Actually the thing is that due to 'Maha-unemployment' in UP, the people who go to the whole country for work and employment, have come to UP on diwali and Chhath leave, and were going to vote to defeat bjp in the by-election.
This is BJP's old trick - Akhilesh Yadav
He had said that as soon as bjp got wind of this, it postponed the by-elections, so that people's holiday ends and they go back without casting their vote. This is BJP's old trick: If we lose, we will postpone it. It is worth mentioning that many parties had demanded a change in the voting date for the by-elections. Let us tell you that according to the election commission, the by-elections for the assembly seats in Kerala, punjab and Uttar Pradesh will be held on november 20 instead of november 13. The election commission has taken this decision in view of the upcoming festivals. On october 15 last month, by-elections were announced for 48 assembly constituencies and 2 parliamentary constituencies in 15 states.
