BJP chief JP Nadda in Prayagraj said, "This election is meant to end the shroud of black clouds that are lingering in the form of Akhilesh Yadav and his gang of 'gundas' (goons)."
In the same rally he earlier said, "Rahul, Akhilesh, and Priyanka who were born with a silver spoon used to make fun of Jan Dhan scheme, they have never seen poverty. Now, Modiji is giving Rs.2000 every month to the farmers."
