SP targeted

On this issue, former Badaun MP and SP leader Dharmendra Yadav said that corruption is at its peak in every scheme of the Center and the state. The people of BJP who earlier used to say that they will neither eat nor allow anyone to eat, I am saying with great responsibility that the people of the entire system are eating and also feeding the BJP leaders.

On the question of investigation of this episode, he said that when the woman is saying live on the mic that money has been taken from her, then what is the point of investigation? Action should be taken in this matter. He said that this is what is happening with every beneficiary in every scheme.
