Lucknow : The workers of the Samajwadi Party did a symbolic inauguration of the Purvanchal Expressway, which was to be inaugurated by the Prime Minister. Its photo has been shared by Samajwadi Party President Akhilesh Yadav on his Twitter. Along with this, he has written on Twitter, accusing him of taking credit for the work of Samajwadi Party, ‘The lace came from Lucknow and the scissors came from New Delhi, ‘Khichham-Kinchai’ has come to take the credit for the work of SP.
“Hope that till now the people of Lucknow sitting alone must have memorized the length of the ‘Samajwadi Purvanchal Expressway’. By inaugurating it with ‘Bahurangi Pushpavarsha’, the SP will answer those with a monochromatic mindset.”

सपा के काम का श्रेय लेने को मची है ‘खिचम-खिंचाई’
आशा है अब तक अकेले में बैठकर लखनऊवालों ने ‘समाजवादी पूर्वांचल एक्सप्रेसवे’ की लंबाई का आँकड़ा रट लिया होगा।
