00:00The party of the country is the Bharatiya Janata Party.
00:02Tell me one state in which no member of any family has been elected by the Bharatiya Janata Party.
00:09Or if they have a government, they have to be a minister.
00:12And it's not like I'm not able to hold a bat and I've become the chairman of Cricket BCCI.
00:23This is your first election in the Lok Sabha.
00:26You are standing with congratulations.
00:28So how is your confidence right now?
00:31Congratulations to the Lok Sabha where I'm standing for the elections.
00:34We have a very old connection with this place.
00:38At some point in time, Nita ji was standing for the elections here.
00:42And after that, Ram Gopal Yadav ji was also here.
00:45Then Dharmendra Yadav was also an MP from here.
00:48So all the big leaders of our party have continuously led us here.
00:54And this time, I'm getting this opportunity.
00:56So first of all, I consider myself very fortunate that I'm getting this opportunity from this historic land where Nita ji and others have fought for the elections.
01:05As far as confidence level is concerned, I'm moving forward with the confidence that I'm getting from the people.
01:15And I have complete faith that the Samajwadi Party will win this time with a lot of confidence.
01:23Because not all the Samajwadi people are core voters of Yadav and Muslim.
01:30But there are people like Anish Samaj, Shatriya Samaj, Thakur Samaj, Kurmi Samaj.
01:38These are all the people who are supporting me with a lot of support and want to win this time.
01:44So this time, what are the issues of congratulations that you will address if you become an MP?
01:53Look, since we came here, there are a lot of issues that I'm getting from the people.
01:58Secondly, I'm going to the people, so I'm listening to them more than I'm saying.
02:03Because I feel that if we say what we want and move forward, that thing is not that effective.
02:10So I sit and listen.
02:12The biggest issue is that there are a lot of people in Badaiu who work in Delhi, Noida, Ghaziabad, NCR.
02:25If all of them have to go there or come from there, then only private buses are a support for them.
02:31There is no direct train. If you go to Bareilly, you have to go from Bareilly.
02:34My priority is that a train runs from Badaiu railway station, which can go to Delhi.
02:40And the people who work there should get facilities.
02:43Where the ticket for private buses is 400-500 rupees, there are 150-200 buses running every day.
02:49If there is a train there, it will be a big facility.
02:52Secondly, the medical college of Badaiu, which was once made by the government of the Socialist Party.
02:58Today its situation is very bad.
03:01There are no doctors there. There is a lot of shortage of staff.
03:04The machines that are installed are not working properly.
03:07The treatment is not happening.
03:08So basically, the motive there was that patients can get treatment for major diseases easily.
03:15But today, the misfortune of Badaiu is that despite having such a big infrastructure,
03:20even today, the patient goes there and is only referred.
03:23If a letter comes out from there, then only the letter of referring comes out.
03:26And the case is changed after the referral.
03:29Thank you.
03:31If you become an MP, what will you do differently from the current MP, Sanghamitra Maurya of BJP?
03:39If I become an MP, then first of all, development.
03:44I will try to work among people and develop.
03:49Along with that, what Sanghamitra Maurya could not do was to make a connection with the public.
03:56You cannot work for everyone, whether you are in power or in opposition.
04:00It is not necessary that you satisfy everyone, work and send them back.
04:03But you can do this, you can meet them, you can satisfy them.
04:08My effort will be that whoever comes to us or reaches us, we can satisfy them.
04:14Helping them or not is a matter of the future.
04:17We will work according to the strength we will get.
04:19But satisfying is my task.
04:22BJP has put a lot of allegations on SP that this is all a family matter.
04:28Do you have anything to say about that?
04:30Yes, absolutely.
04:31Look, BJP talks about family matters when there are no issues.
04:37And especially in the Socialist Party, the Bharatiya Janata Party has targeted our family many times.
04:44I don't understand one thing, that today there is a Socialist Party in Uttar Pradesh.
04:50The party of the country is the Bharatiya Janata Party.
04:53Tell me one such state in which no member of any family has been made to contest the elections by the Bharatiya Janata Party.
05:00Or if they have a government, then they have to be ministers.
05:03Second thing, we are in the elections today.
05:09When we are in this election, we are going to the people and asking for votes.
05:15If I would have been nominated in the Rajya Sabha, or if I would have been made an MLC, then I could have come under the terminology of family matters.
05:24But I am going to the people, I am getting votes from the people.
05:29If the people win, then I will become a minister and I will be able to lead them.
05:35If they don't win, then their final answer will be my head.
05:39But if you are getting votes from the people, then why don't you serve the people.
05:47In the end, I would say that neither did they make me an MLC, nor did they send me to the Rajya Sabha.
05:53And it is not that I am not able to hold a bat and I have become the chairman of Cricket BCCI.
05:59So I don't understand why family matters come only to us.
06:03Family matters can come to other people as well.
06:05But we don't go there because the person who deserves it should come forward.
06:11And in which family, which father doesn't want his children or future generation to be unsuccessful.
06:18Politics is a field where the people have to come forward to be successful.
06:24So if the people are making us win, then this is democracy.
06:27In democracy, the people are the leaders.
06:30Last time, SP did not win from here.
06:36Whereas SP is holding a stronghold.
06:39So what went wrong in 2019?
06:43In 2019, there were a lot of things.
06:46First of all, we had a conflict with BASPA.
06:50And after the conflict with BASPA, our voter was overconfident.
06:57When both the parties met, there was a big chance of winning.
07:02That was a big reason.
07:05Secondly, when the machines were kept in the strongroom in Gunnaur,
07:13Dharmen Yadav and Pritayashi were not asked.
07:17And it was said that a bird entered the strongroom and broke the lock of the strongroom.
07:23When the counting results came out, the numbers that came out physically were differing from the numbers that were given online.
07:33So the question is, where did the 8000 votes go?
07:38Either it should be less or it should be more.
07:41So we look at it in a way.
07:44But as I said in the first thing, our voters were overconfident due to the conflict.
07:50Because of this, we had to succeed.
07:54Secondly, there were many of our colleagues who got separated from the party in 2019.
08:03And they also suffered a little from being separated from the party.
08:06So you said that last time there was a little overconfidence because there was an alliance between BSP and SP.
08:13This time it is between Congress and SP.
08:16So is there any overconfidence this time?
08:18No, there is no overconfidence this time.
08:21In fact, this time we are very careful.
08:24A person learns from the mistakes of the last time.
08:26So we learned from the mistakes of the last time.
08:29And we have tried that until the machines go inside by the last day on the 7th,
08:34and at the same time the votes do not get spoilt,
08:37our attempt is that as many voters as possible come out.
08:40And we are trying everywhere, wherever we are going in the meeting,
08:43we are saying that it is your right to vote.
08:47And each and every vote should come out and reach the polling booth.
08:51Whether it is men or women, everyone should use their rights.
