Akhilesh Yadav and his party leaders have left the place where they were holding their sit in after the police prevented their march. They have gone back to the party office for now.
The Uttar Pradesh police stopped Akhilesh Yadav and his party members from marching to the Vidhan Bhavan raising various issues concerning the people before the beginning of the Monsoon Session of the state legislature. The Samajwadi Party leader, who was leading the march, managed to cover 100 meters before being met with police barricades. Cops said the party did not have permission to march on their planned route. लोकतंत्र की हत्या कर रही भाजपा सरकार!महंगाई, बेरोज़गारी के खिलाफ पैदल मार्च कर रहे माननीय राष्ट्रीय अध्यक्ष श्री अखिलेश यादव जी को विधानसभा जाने से रोका जाना बेहद शर्मनाक। pic.twitter.com/bo3r5u46AJ
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, taking a dig at the Samajwadi Party, said they can ask questions in a democratic way, but it's "too much to expect" from them.
"There is no harm if any party asks their questions in a democratic way. Samajwadi Party should take permission for any procession which should not harm anyone. Following law and order is too much of an expectation from Samajwadi Party leaders," he said.
The party said it won't change the route -- starting at the SP office, passing through Raj Bhavan and Gandhi statue located near the General Post Office, and culminating at the Vidhan Bhavan. However, Akhilesh Yadav and his party leaders have left the place where they were holding their sit in after the police prevented their march. They have gone back to the party office for now.
