Senior Samajwadi Party leader and former minister Shivpal Singh Yadav was on a tour of Deoria district on Tuesday due to the party's program. During this, he reacted to the statement of Suheldev Bharatiya Samaj Party President and Minister Om Prakash Rajbhar. Shivpal said that OP Rajbhar keeps saying false things all the time. Everyone knows this.

He said that Rajbhar society is a respectable class, but Om Prakash does not care about anyone and speaks falsely. Shivpal Yadav said, 'If Purvanchal is formed, then Western Uttar Pradesh will be formed, Bundelkhand will be formed and then Rohilkhand will also be formed. First think about it. How many states will you create? He said that first talk about one state.

'First eliminate dishonesty and corruption'

SP General Secretary Shivpal Yadav further said, 'If a state becomes small, its importance reduces. I have seen that wherever small states have been formed, their economy has weakened. First eliminate dishonesty and corruption from Uttar Pradesh.

OP Rajbhar said what?

In fact, recently, minister and BJP ally Om Prakash Rajbhar had raised the nearly two decade old demand of division of UP. He has claimed that after the caste-wise census, the country's most populous state Uttar Pradesh can be divided into four parts.

Addressing a rally in Deoria on Sunday, Rajbhar claimed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had assured him that the state could be divided after the caste-wise census. OP Rajbhar told the people present in the rally that now they have to decide whether they should trust the Prime Minister or listen to the people of Samajwadi Party, Bahujan Samaj Party and Congress.

Does OP Rajbhar want CM in Purvanchal?

Om Prakash Rajbhar and other backward castes are considered to have a significant influence in the Purvanchal region. Om Prakash Rajbhar told the people present at the rally that when Purvanchal state is formed, someone from the Rajbhar community will become the Chief Minister.
