Akhilesh Yadav claims BJP failed to ensure women’s safety in UP

Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav launched a scathing attack on Wednesday against the Yogi Adityanath-led BJP government over Uttar Pradesh’s law-and-order situation, saying the ruling party’s claims of women empowerment have become “mere slogans”.

Just a



week ahead of the bypolls to nine Assembly seats in the state, the former chief minister highlighted the efforts made by the Samajwadi party when it was in power in Uttar Pradesh that included the distribution of over 18 lakh laptops to students for free to improve the educational standards.
