Yadav also suggested the party to read the philosophy of socialist political leader Ram Manohar Lohia. He said speaking to a news agency, "Neither did they (BJP) take ‘Sabka Saath’ (everyone along) nor did they do ‘Sabka Vikas’ (all-round development). They only spread ‘avishwas’ (scepticism) among people”. He later accused the Yogi Adityanath-led Uttar Pradesh government of stopping all welfare initiatives taken during his tenures like the setting up of potato and grain mandis (markets) in Mainpuri.
