Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath on Wednesday took a dig at Samajwadi Party amid the ongoing Umesh Pal Yadav murder investigation. The chief minister said that BJP grew flowers using the bulldozers from the thorns which were planted during Samajwadi Party’s time.
“The task of cultivating flowers for the state’s people is being carried out by running bulldozers and rollers over them while removing the thorns planted in your government,” CM Yogi said.
“From those who have a tendency to grow thorns, flowers cannot be anticipated,” he added.

‘Farmers were committing suicide in SP Govt’: UP CM Yogi
Addressing the budget session in assembly, the chief minister compared his six years in office to Samajwadi Party’s tenure.
“Prior to 2017, Farmers were committing suicide in the SP government, and sugar mills in the state were either shutting down or being sold at throwaway prices. At that time the farmers of the state were committing suicide. Middlemen dominated crop procurement,” he said.
‘Today, Annadata farmer is government’s top priority’
“There was a ban on selling the produce in another market for the farmers. The mandi fee was two per cent, but today the ‘Annadata’ farmer is the government’s top priority. In the very first meeting, the loan waiver program worth ₹ 36,000 crore was taken forward, which benefited 86 lakh farmers. Today, the contribution of agriculture to the state GDP is 26 percent, while the rate of agricultural development has increased three times as compared to 2016-17,” Mr Adityanath said.
“Today result-oriented work is being done in the state through better coordination. ₹ 1,234 crore was expended on Saifai Mahotsav back then. On the other hand, only ₹ 21 crore has been spent on the Investors Summit held recently,” he said.
