Akhilesh Yadav, the chief of the Samajwadi Party, has publicly criticized BJP MP Ravi Kishan for his recent statement claiming to be a 'stress buster' for Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. Yadav took to social media to question the role of elected representatives, asserting that they should prioritize the needs of the people rather than serve as mere 'toys' for the chief minister. He expressed concern over the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) apparent disconnect from the public's pressing issues, particularly as citizens face various hardships. Yadav's remarks come in light of Kishan's comments, which he deemed embarrassing for Gorakhpur, the constituency Kishan represents in the Lok Sabha. The Samajwadi Party leader also suggested that Kishan's implication that Adityanath is under 'stress' could have serious repercussions, especially given the public's growing frustration with alleged corruption and government mismanagement. This criticism is part of a broader pattern, as Yadav has previously challenged Kishan's statements, including a past comparison of Gorakhpur to Spain.
