Laal Topi Is Colour Of Change, UP Wants Change: Akhilesh Yadav On PM Modi’s ‘Laal Topi’ Attack

The former chief minister alleged that the government is making such comments because they don’t want to deal with real issues

Mumbai: Responding to Prime Minister Modi’s ‘red topi is a red alert for Uttar Pradesh’ attack, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav said that Red Topi is a colour of change and asked them whether the promises made were fulfilled.

“In UP, ‘laal topi’ is the colour of change. UP wants to see change. Promises made by BJP are mere ‘jumla’, they have been lying continuously. They have misled people. Did they fulfill their promises? Did the farmers’ income double? Did the youth get jobs?,” said Akhilesh Yadav. Also Read: Never Raised Any Slogan Against India, Want To Bring Gandhi’s Back, Says Farooq Abdullah

The former chief minister alleged that the government is making such comments because they don’t want to deal with real issues.

“Those who sell public property are perturbed with the colour red. This is a govt that sells. So far it was a govt of ‘jumlas’, it has now become a ‘bechu’ govt too. They are making such comments because they don’t want to discuss real issues,” SP chief said in Delhi.

PM Modi visited the poll-bound state on Tuesday and said, “The whole of UP knows that “laal topi waalon” (the red caps) are only interested in red lights,” referring to the red beacons on top of government vehicles that have come to symbolise power and VIP status.

“These people only need power for scams, for encroachment, to give a free run to mafias. The red caps want to form the government to get terrorists released from jail… The red caps are red alerts for Uttar Pradesh… the danger alarm,” the Prime Minister added.

Responding to the jibe the same day, Akhilesh Yadav tweeted: “The red alert for the BJP is over rising prices, unemployment, the bad condition of farmers and labourers; Over Hathras, Lakhimpur and harassment of women and youth. A destroyed education system, trade and health and also over the ‘red cap’ that will throw them out of power this time.”
