Uttar Pradesh Assembly Election 2022: Samajwadi Party President Akhilesh Yadav has described China as the real enemy of India instead of Pakistan. Akhilesh Yadav said that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) keeps targeting Pakistan only for the politics of votes. On the other hand, BJP has retaliated to this statement of Akhilesh Yadav and said that Akhilesh Yadav is deliberately trying to appease the name of Pakistan at the time of elections and he should apologize to the country for his statement.
What has Akhilesh said about China and Pakistan?
Actually, Akhilesh Yadav has said these things about China and Pakistan while giving an interview to an English newspaper. Akhilesh was asked in the interview that what is his view on Chinese investment in India and increasing trade with China? Responding to this question, Akhilesh said, “Dr. Ram Manohar Lohia and Mulayam Singh Yadav have a clear view on the issue of China. Our real enemy is China. Pakistan is our political enemy. But BJP is attacking Pakistan only because of vote politics. Hits the target.”
Akhilesh further said, “We all heard this news about what China did in Galwan Valley. They are grabbing our land, taking over our business. The Indian government should think about this and work with the opposition parties.” We should meet and take advice on how to deal with the situation. On the investment front, we are forced to do business with China. It is a difficult situation where we have to do business with our biggest enemy. We need to strengthen our industries to avoid this situation further.”

BJP attacked
The BJP is now making an issue of Akhilesh Yadav’s statement that Pakistan is not considered a real enemy. BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra said in a press conference in Lucknow on Monday, “Akhilesh ji, are the brothers of Kashmir not our brothers? Unarmed and innocent people are killed by terrorists sent by Pakistan’s firing on the brothers of Kashmir every day. Isn’t that Pakistan, which is always conspiring against India, plotting terror attacks against India? Akhilesh Yadav had entered this election by chanting Jinnah and today reached Pakistan a notch higher.”
Sambit Patra said, “Media says that when elections come, BJP brings Pakistan. You see, we don’t even do that. Who brought Pakistan today, Akhilesh came. Before this, who brought Jinnah, brought Akhilesh. Akhilesh Yadav is talking about Jinnah and Pakistan because of the height of appeasement.” Patra took a jibe at Akhilesh and said, “Jinnah se jo kare pyar, woh Pakistan se kaise karne denial.”
