Control infighting first, think of winning UP later: Amit Shah to Samajwadi Party
BJP president Amit Shah on Friday took a dig at the ruling Samajwadi Party in Uttar Pradesh for the `deteriorating law and order` in the state.
Kanpur: BJP president Amit Shah on Friday took a dig at the ruling Samajwadi Party in Uttar Pradesh for the "deteriorating law and order" in the state, and said the party should first try to control the "infighting" within it.
"The government has failed to control law and order in the state. How will those who cannot control law and order in their own family control the state," Shah said at a rally here.
Slamming Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav for the poor law and order situation, the Bharatiya Janata Party chief said: "UP is very big Akhilesh bhaiya (brother)... first of all, control your family... only then will a bit of peace return to the state."
The BJP President`s remarks came amid souring relations between the Chief Minister and his uncle and senior Minister Shivpal Yadav.
