Etawah: Politics has intensified in the case of indecency with storytellers in Etawah, Uttar Pradesh. On one hand, while the Bharatiya Janata Party is almost silent, the Samajwadi Party is vocal against the state government on the basis of the issue of law and order and social fabric.

SP is not only vocal on this issue but is also active in the dispute of Tiwari Hata and Heritage Corridor in Gorakhpur. According to the Dynamite News correspondent, SP chief Akhilesh Yadav is trying to sail the political boat by riding two boats in this way.

Talking about Etawah, SP is trying to capitalize on this entire incident in its favor. From the very first day after the case came to light, all the leaders, including SP and its national president Akhilesh Yadav, were active and were cornering the state government.

What is the message of SP?

Meanwhile, an interesting thing is that the SP chief has not said anywhere yet that injustice has been done to the Yadav class. Rather, he is trying to give a message to his supporters and the state that what a particular class has been doing to the Dalits, the same is happening to the backward classes as well.

Through this strategy, Akhilesh is trying to bridge the gap between Dalits and Yadavs and create a new equation, which may not only benefit him but is also likely to harm the Bahujan Samaj Party.

If Akhilesh wanted, he could have said why the Yadavs are being beaten up, but instead of saying so, his focus is on the fact that people of the backward classes are being prevented from doing Katha Varta.

At the same time, Akhilesh does not want to anger the Brahmins through this strategy, so instead of directly naming them or verbally attacking them, he is using words like "Dabang" and "Supremacist." So that the Brahmin class does not get angry with the SP and him.

Akhilesh said in a statement on Friday, June 27, that today the entire PDA society is raising its voice with every victim of the 'Etawah Kathavachan PDA insult episode.' 'PDA' is a new echo of the new drum against oppression.

That is, Akhilesh claims that in this case not only the backward class but also the upper caste and other sections of the society are with the victims. Akhilesh is trying to bring the Brahmins of Purvanchal along with the backward class in the Etawah case.

On stopping SP leader and Leader of Opposition in the Assembly Mata Prasad Pandey and Leader of Opposition in the Legislative Council Lal Bihari Yadav in the 'Heritage Corridor' case in Gorakhpur, the SP leader had said that neither the BJP's hand nor that of the PDA is liked.

Not only this, Akhilesh will go to Sultanpur to do damage control so that the Brahmins do not get angry with the SP due to the SP's activism in the Etawah case and the statements of the leaders. Here he will go to the office of former SP MLA Santosh Pandey.

Now it will be interesting to see how Akhilesh will sail the SP's boat by riding two boats. For Akhilesh, bringing the backward class with the Dalits and keeping the anger of the Brahmins away is like a double-edged sword. Only time will tell how successful he will be in this.
