Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav accused the BJP of communal polarization and inflation diversion
They are neither accepting that inflation exists nor addressing the problem,” Yadav said. “As an economist rightly pointed out recently, the GDP is zero because if GDP is growing at 7.2, 7.8 or 7.9 per cent, as they claim, then why is a poor person unable to take his wife home or perform her last rites?” he asked. “Inflation is not an issue for them, nor is anything else. Look at how inflation is rising. What hasn’t become expensive? He also questioned the BJP’s claims of high GDP growth, referring to an incident in Jhansi in which a poor man allegedly could not afford to take his wife’s body home from a hospital or perform her last rites and was forced to dump the body in a river.
