New Delhi [India], June 26 (ANI): After Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the "Atma Nirbhar Uttar Pradesh Rojgar Abhiyan" on Friday through video conferencing in the presence of Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) national spokesperson Sudhindra Bhadoria said that rather than announcing programmes, the government should take measures to provide relief to the people of the state.
"The Prime Minister has announced the 'Atma Nirbhar Uttar Pradesh Rojgar Abhiyan' to provide employment to the people of Uttar Pradesh, but let me say this that since the BJP government has been in power in Uttar Pradesh and the country, there have been a lot of programmes which have been announced, but none have been materialized. We have seen that people have suffered all through and they are living in misery," Bhadoria said.
