SP, BSP govts 'breaking records of corruption': UP BJP

BJP today charged Samajwadi Party and Bahujan Samaj Party, both of which have been ruling Uttar Pradesh alternatively for more than a decade, with "breaking records of corruption" and said it will order investigation into their financial wrongdoings if it comes to power in the state.
"Both the ruling SP and BSP have been breaking records of corruption. Be it the current Akhilesh Yadav government or the one headed by his father, Mulayam Singh Yadav, in 2004-2007, SP in power has been synonymous with rampant corruption. Same has been the case with Mayawati's BSP," BJP state unit president Keshav Prasad Maurya told reporters here.

He claimed that BJP is emerging as a ray of hope in the state as people are fed up with the two parties which have been in power alternatively for more than a decade.
"We are confident of victory in the assembly polls. On being voted to power we will get all the financial wrongdoings by leaders of these two powers thoroughly investigated and all those found guilty will be brought to justice," Maurya said.
The BJP state unit chief also launched a scathing attack on Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi who is all set to launch a 'Maha Yatra' (mega march) next week at Deoria in eastern UP from where he would move towards Delhi, traversing through nearly 40 districts of the state and holding small rallies and roadshows along the way.

"Gandhi is perhaps not aware that Maha Yatra is the name given to a person's funeral procession. Unwittingly, though, he appears to have done the right thing.
"Congress is on its death bed and Prime Minister Narendra Modi's dream of Congress-Mukt Bharat will become a reality sooner than we had imagined," he added.
