Jhansi: Mounting a fresh attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Uttar Pradesh Cabinet Minister Azam Khan today said he works like a "badshah" and accused his government of befooling people by raking up issues related to cow and the Ganga.
The senior Samajwadi Party leader said that instead of building smart cities, PM Modi should focus on smart villages.
"Modi is working like a 'badshah'. He is building smart cities, while there is a need to create smart villages," Mr Khan told reporters yesterday.
"The Modi government is favouring capitalists and befooling the people of the country by raking up issues related to cow and the Ganga," he alleged, adding "if they (Modi government) respect cow so much then they should ban beef being served in five-star hotels".
The minister had earlier also made controversial remarks against PM Modi and even alleged that the PM had met underworld don Dawood Ibrahim in Lahore at the residence of Pakistani counterpart Nawaz Sharif.
