Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav on Tuesday accused the Uttar Pradesh government of large-scale irregularities and alleged scams in various road-widening and corridor development projects undertaken during the tenure of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Demanding a comprehensive judicial investigation, the former Chief Minister said that those responsible for the alleged irregularities should be held accountable, irrespective of their position.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
“A multi-member judicial inquiry should be conducted into the scams and irregularities in every corridor and road-widening project initiated by the BJP government. No trustee, committee member, or official from the administration or development authorities involved in these matters should be spared,” Yadav said in a post on X.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Samajwadi Party chief alleged that such “massive scams” could occur only through the collusion of multiple stakeholders involved in the execution and oversight of these projects.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
He further called for an investigation into the assets and wealth accumulated by individuals associated with the projects over the past several years.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
“There should be an investigation into the illegally acquired property and immense wealth of all those associated with these activities over the past few years,” he said.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Yadav, however, did not cite any specific project or furnish evidence in support of his allegations in his statement.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
There was no immediate response from the Uttar Pradesh government or the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to the allegations.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The remarks come amid ongoing political exchanges between the opposition and the state government over infrastructure development, transparency in public spending, and accountability in major projects across Uttar Pradesh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
