Lucknow: Samajwadi Party leader Akhilesh Yadav on Friday called the Nooprpur victory as a victory of democracy.
Samajwadi Party’s Naimul Hasan won the Uttar Pradesh’s Noorpur assembly seat with the clear margin of 6211 votes.
Addressing the media, the former Chief Minister said that they have given a befitting reply to the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).”I want to congratulate all the people who voted for us. This is a defeat for those who do not believe in the democracy. People have given a befitting reply to the BJP,” he added.
“We have learnt the game they (BJP) used to play with us. It was said that farmers’ loan will be waived off but nothing happened and a lot of farmers died. It is a big deception,” the SP president said.
Bypoll in Noorpur was held on May 28 after the death of its MLA Lokendra Singh Chauhan of BJP.
