Swami Prasad Maurya, who left the BJP and joined the SP, broke the silence after losing the election. Swami Prasad Maurya was trying bet on SP ticket from Fazilnagar. Here he lost the election to his rival BJP candidate. Swami Prasad Maurya congratulated the winning MLAs by tweeting after losing the election. Regarding the majority given to BJP in UP, Swami Prasad Maurya said that I respect the mandate of the people. Defeat and victory are part of democracy. I accept my defeat in the election.
I have not lost my courage and lost the election. The issues for which I left BJP are still there and will keep those issues in front of the public. While narrating the anecdote of snake and mongoose, he said, always the big one is the mongoose. It is a different matter that both the snake and the snake together did not let the mongoose win. He further said, where people understood, the results have also come positive. We are happy that the mass base of Samajwadi Party has grown rapidly and the number of MLAs has also increased 2.5 times and SP has emerged as a major force in Uttar Pradesh. This campaign will continue to make it bigger.
Swami Prasad’s claims remained hollow
Swami Prasad Maurya, who went to the Samajwadi Party with big claims, could neither bring the SP to power nor win his seat. In the election results, while the influence of former Union Minister RPN was visible, on the other hand, Swami Prasad has proved to be a big deal in this election. RPN had taken charge of campaigning in all the seven seats of the district and the result was 100 percent in favor of BJP.
On the other hand, all the claims made by Swami Prasad after joining the SP before the elections have proved to be hollow. After leaving the BJP, Swami Prasad had claimed that the entire OBC and Dalit society has turned in favor of the SP after him. He will drive the BJP out of power. A few days later, former Union Minister RPN Singh from Congress joined the BJP. He had only said that he would work with all his life like a common worker in the BJP. When Padrauna came, he united day and night in favor of BJP candidates.
