Ghaziabad: In an apparent attack on the ruling Samajwadi Party in Uttar Pradesh, Union minister Kalraj Mishra on Tuesday said those opposing the Centre's demonetisation move have no right to remain in government in states.
Addressing a 'Parivartan Rally' at Shani Chowk in Trans Hindon area, the Union Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises Minister exhorted the people to ensure a change in government in Uttar Pradesh.
"Prime Minister Narendra Modi has given a grant of several million crores of rupees to the UP government, but development is still a distant dream in the state," he said.
He said the UP government took no action in the Bulandshahr rape case, Dadri lynching case and Kairana exodus episode.
On the issue of Ram Temple, he said that the temple will be constructed in Ayodhya with the consent of masses.
The rally was addressed by Union ministers V K Singh and Sanjeev Baliyan among others.
Meanwhile, a FIR has been lodged by BJP workers against Congress leaders at Kavi Nagar police station over burning of an effigy of the Prime Minister outside the collectorate today, police said.
Superintendent of Police (City) Salman Taj Patil said the effigy of the Prime Minister was burnt by Congress workers led by its district president Harendra Kasana and women wing president Pooja Chaddha. Some derogatory slogans were allegedly raised against PM at the event, he said.
The FIR has been registered against 30 office-bearers and workers of Congress.
