‘Cap is red, intention is black': Maurya on SP's appeasement policy
1 2 Prayagraj: Using the slogan "cap is red, intention is black" to describe Samajwadi Party 's intentions, deputy chief minister Keshav Prasad Maurya on Sunday criticized the opposition party for having an "appeasement mindset". Attacking the Congress, he said, "By taking the support of fake and false crutches of secularism and socialism, the grand old party had long dreamt of tightening its grip on the power of the country. But the wheel of time broke this spell. Despite this, it is still hoping for power with these worn-out crutches." "Understanding the difference between faith and market is not something that 'goons' can do," said Maurya, who was in the Sangam City to participate in 'Ek Vriksha Maa Ke Naam' event. Maurya also interacted with party leaders and workers at Amar Shaheed Chandrashekhar Azad Circuit House and urged them to gear up for the 2027 UP assembly polls with full commitment, aiming to replicate the party's success in the 2017 assembly and 2014 parliamentary elections. Asking the cadre to work towards increasing the party's vote count in the elections, he asked them to be cautious and vigilant, focusing on the 2027 elections and ensuring the public is aware of the govt's welfare schemes and policies. He noted that while the opposition gained some traction in 2024 by spreading misinformation, they lost momentum in subsequent elections in Haryana, Maharashtra and Delhi. "The same will happen to them in 2027, and the BJP govt will be formed. We will repeat 2017 in 2027 and make the lotus bloom," he claimed. Exuding confidence that the NDA will secure majority in Bihar, the deputy CM said that Nitish Kumar is going to have a big victory in the state. Taking about Kanwar Yatra, he said, "If any information regarding the violation of the sanctity of kanwariyas is received, inform the police immediately and strict action will follow."
