Akhilesh Yadav said if the Centre would have passed the proposal of Firozabad airport during SP regime, then UP's development would have progressed towards perfection.
Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Thursday said that if the Centre would have passed the proposal of Firozabad airport during the SP regime, then development in Uttar Pradesh would have progressed towards perfection.
Taking to Twitter, the SP chief said, "If the BJP government at the Centre would not have stopped the proposal of Firozabad airport during the SP government, then at this time 'churis' (bangles) would also have got a chance to be associated with 'jewar' (jewellery) and the development of Uttar Pradesh government would have progressed towards perfection."
"Only SP can give a new flight to the development of UP," he said further in a tweet.
Akhilesh Yadav's remarks came as a counterattack to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's remark of previous governments neglecting development of Uttar Pradesh. PM Modi made the statement at the foundation stone laying ceremony of Noida International Airport on Thursday.
