UP chief minister Akhilesh Yadav on Monday said his government preferred using public money to bring smiles on faces of common people rather than waste it on lifeless memorials.
Without naming anyone but in a clear dig at BSP chief Mayawati, Yadav said that “the SP government is more interested in using hard earned peoples' money on bringing smiles on the faces of people rather than on stone structures and memorials”.
The chief minister, who was here to distribute cheques of unemployment and 'kanya vidyadhan' schemes to 9,943 unemployed girls of Devi Patan division, said that soon an industrial policy would be brought so as to make jobs available to the youth of the state. Ensuring that all schemes promised in the manifesto of the party would be implemented, Yadav said that soon the process of distribution of computer tablets and laptops would begin.
