Today the state is at the No. 2 position in terms of economy; If we continue at this rate, the state will be in a much better position in the next 6 years. We have prepared a roadmap and are working towards achieving an economy of 1 trillion dollars that is result oriented’’

Lastly, on the strategy to tackle the pandemic, the CM said, “In UP, 11 crore people have been vaccinated. The work of PM Modi during the pandemic was commendable. Today, our state only has 4 patients suffering from COVID-19.”
Former Chief Minister and President of Samajwadi Party, Akhilesh Yadav said, “We want to further build our canvas. We have not abandoned our traditional Muslim Yadav plank and instead we are now focusing on Mahila and Youth, the other MY factor. The new equation, therefore, becomes M2Y2.”

Representing the Muslims, he said, “I want to change what has been happening with Muslims for the past 60 – 65 years. We want to play as equals in the field. Change will come when Muslims form the leadership.”
Talking about bringing change in the government, he appealed to all the opposition parties stating, “Things get worse after the elections. It would be better to talk about it earlier. If anyone has a problem with me, then talk to Om Prakash Rajbhar and tell him how to fight elections together. Om Prakash Rajbhar is with us and trying to bring people together. If you do not talk now, then there will be nothing left to talk about later.”
