Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav on Thursday hit back at Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ‘karnama’ jibe, and said that Modi’s biggest work is “not doing any work” at all.
Akhilesh’s retort was to Modi’s comment, attacking the Samajwadi Party slogan ‘Kaam bolta hai’ (work speaks for itself). Modi had said that only Akhilesh’s ‘karnama (misdeed) speaks.
The chief minister once again challenged Modi to a debate as to who had initiated more development projects in the last few years — the UP government or the Centre.
“Modi never talks about development. The SP regime has undertaken a series of welfare measures for every section of the society,” Akhilesh said.
