Addressing the House during the debate on the Motion of Thanks on the President's address, Samajwadi chief and Kannauj MP Akhilesh Yadav raised the burning issue of paper leaks of competitive exams and targeted the Narendra Modi government today with a speech laced with sarcasm and peppered with poetry. In a poetic jibe at the NDA government formed after the BJP, which fell short of majority, tied up with its allies to cobble together the required numbers, he said, "Upar se juda koi taar nahi, niche koi adhaar nahi, adhar mein jo hai atki hui, woh toh koi sarkar nahi." The lines mean there is no foundation on which this government stands.
"The whole of India knows that INDIA is pro-India," he said, claiming that the Opposition bloc has scored a moral victory in this election.
