Amroha (UP), Apr 15: A day after Mayawati government in Uttar Pradesh slapped 137 cases against him, Samajwadi Party President Mulayam Singh Yadav today hit back by alleging that prime land in the state had been sold for "peanuts" by the Chief Minister in league with her BJP cabinet colleague Lalji Tandon. "Prime land in Noida, Agra, Lucknow and other big cities are being sold for peanuts by Chief Minister Mayawati in connivance with state's urban development minister and senior BJP leader Lalji Tandon", he said addressing party workers here. Yadav also alleged that funds released for drought relief by the Centre were distributed among office bearers of BJP.
He claimed Mayawati had framed fake cases against him to divert peoples attention from her own "misdeeds".


"The firs have been filed only to divert the attention from the corrupt practices of those at the helm of affairs in the present government", Yadav said.

The SP leader alleged that Mayawati was misusing power to intimidate her political adversaries.


He said he had faced several such probes and charges in the past and had emerged unscathed and was not afraid of facing any case or inquiry. Bureau Report
