Yadav in scathing attack said quoted by ANI said, “Not everybody has the guts to stand against the government … pressure is put on everybody. Is there anyone who doesn’t know that BJP would go to any extent to win. “BJP was dishonest during Chandigarh elections also… When it comes to UP, BJP did everything to get votes and those who left, might not have had the guts to stand against the govt. “Action will be taken because our party leaders want such people to be kept away from the party…”
