BJP defeat in bypoll means the beginning of change, says Akhilesh on Bihar, M.P. results
Akhilesh said that a BJP defeat means the beginning of change. Even the BJP is not able to save its safest and most traditional seats
Samajwadi Party President Akhilesh Yadav commented on the Assembly byelection results on August 3, 2026, stating that the outcomes signaled the beginning of change. He noted that the public outrage was so intense that even the BJP could not secure its safest seat. Akhilesh expressed his belief that this defeat was a result of the unity among the youth and the anger of their parents due to various forms of corruption, including vote rigging, paper manipulation, and theft of donations and jobs.
He criticized the BJP, alleging that the party had betrayed the trust and faith of the people through numerous forms of deceit and abuse. Akhilesh went on to say that the BJP's defeat was not just a personal setback for one individual, but a reflection of the entire party's failure. He emphasized that this was a double defeat for the BJP, both in its loss of the Assembly election and its inability to retain its most secure seats.
Akhilesh concluded by congratulating the winners of the elections and urging them to honor their commitments to the Constitution and the new expectations placed upon them.
