People in the country want change, the former chief minister told reporters at a Samajwadi Lohia Vahini programme.
"The youth have seen unemployment, the farmers have seen deceit, while traders are worried due to demonetisation and GST. The country wants a new prime minister after the 2019 Lok Sabha elections. Hence the effort by the youngsters would be to give a new prime minister, so that our country can become prosperous," Mr Yadav said.
