Lucknow: The Samajwadi Party and Bahujan Samaj Party on Friday tried to corner the BJP over the demonetisation issue, terming it a failure and demanded an apology from the ruling party. “They (BJP) had sought 50 days, but now two years have passed after demonetisation… People are still awaiting an answer that except ruining business and increasing unemployment, what benefit has it given? If the government considers it a success, it should tell (people) in whose pocket the benefit went,” SP chief Akhilesh Yadav said.
BSP supremo Mayawati, too, slammed the Bharatiya Janata Party for the decision. “After two years of demonetisation, any of the objectives as claimed by the BJP were not met. The BJP should offer an apology for the move. The BJP government at the Centre will be remembered as a government of failures in which none of the promises made to the people were fulfilled,” she said in a statement.
Describing the move as an “economic emergency”, the Dalit leader said resentment was brewing among the people as the BJP, which promised to bring back black money and ensure “acche din” (good days), stands exposed.
“While demonetisation broke the back of the poor, it helped the BJP men make their black money white by depositing them in banks. (PTI)
