Lucknow: The political landscape in Uttar Pradesh was shaken today when Akhilesh Yadav, the leader of the Samajwadi Party, voiced serious concerns regarding the electoral process and administrative impartiality. During a press conference held in Lucknow, Yadav stated that the current system is characterized by 'not counting votes but rather fabricating them.'

Claims of Undercover Syndicate

He asserted, 'In due time, the details of that WhatsApp group will be revealed, where conspiracies against democracy are being plotted.'


Critique of Survey Agencies

He also mentioned a lack of funds, clarifying that the electoral strategist organization I-PAC is no longer collaborating with them.


Looking Ahead to 2027 Elections

As he prepares for the 2027 assembly elections, Akhilesh expressed that he is formulating strategies based on advice from astrologers and scholars.
