Tweaked "Khela Hobe" Version Tailormade For Akhilesh Yadav's Party In UP

UP assembly elections 2022: The Akhilesh Yadav-led opposition alliance has been singing its own "Khadeda Hoibe" (will be chased away) poll jingle in Uttar Pradesh

Designed after the "Khela Hobe" campaign song of Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee in West Bengal, the Akhilesh Yadav-led opposition alliance has been singing its own "Khadeda Hoibe" (will be chased away) poll jingle in Uttar Pradesh.

Based on the local dialect prevalent in the Purvanchal region of Uttar Pradesh, the song, which was launched recently, has been doing the rounds on social media and is being played at political events of the opposition grouping in its fight against the ruling BJP.

"The people of Uttar Pradesh are themselves saying that there will be a 'Khadeda Hoibe' (will be chased out) for the BJP, and at some places in the state its (the BJP's) people are being actually being chased away by angry voters," Samajwadi Party MLC Ashutosh Sinha said.

"The 'Khadeda Hoibe' battle cry is uniting people from different sections of society and from various walks of life. The template of Bengal (assembly elections) is significantly resonating with the people in Uttar Pradesh," Mr Sinha said.
