Lucknow, Sep 28 (PTI) Accusing the BJP of working in the interest of capitalists who had helped it come to power, Samajwadi Party President Akhilesh Yadav has said the "success" of the farmers' Bharat Bandh has unnerved the ruling party.
The Bharat Bandh was called on Monday by farmer unions to protest against the Centre's three agri laws.
In a tweet in Hindi on Monday night, the SP chief also charged that the BJP was working for those who hold its reins in their hands.
