Shri Maurya stated that the 'PDA' concept promoted by Samajwadi Party chief Shri Akhilesh Yadav is completely fake. He described it as a political ploy designed to mislead and deceive the backward classes and Dalits. He noted that while the Samajwadi Party long engaged in politics in the name of the interests of backward classes and Dalits, it ignored their welfare when the time came to provide genuine opportunities and empowerment. He asserted that the public has already responded to this deception by the Samajwadi Party on multiple occasions. He predicted that in the 2027 Assembly elections, the public would deliver such a decisive response that Samajwadi Party leaders would be confined to Saifai. He emphasized that the people of Uttar Pradesh stand firmly behind the policies of development, good governance, security, welfare for the poor, and the principle of 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas' (development for all). Launching a scathing counter-attack on the remarks made by Samajwadi Party National President Shri Akhilesh Yadav against the BJP government, Deputy Chief Minister Shri Keshav Prasad Maurya invoked the proverb: "The pot calling the kettle black." He remarked that during Shri Akhilesh Yadav's tenure, the entire state of Uttar Pradesh had been pushed to the brink of ruin; roads were riddled with potholes, the power supply system was in shambles, law and order had completely collapsed, and corruption was rampant. He added that the people of the state have not forgotten the conditions they witnessed during that period. Shri Maurya remarked that Shri Akhilesh Yadav’s recent rhetoric suggests he has become a "habitual loudmouth" (*bayanveer*). He concluded by stating that the public is witnessing the development and good governance taking place and clearly sees the contrast between the performance of the previous government and the current "double-engine" government.
