MEERUT, June 5 -- Attacking the opposition, agriculture minister Surya Pratap Shahi on Thursday said the Yogi government's performance is reflected in Uttar Pradesh's agricultural growth, including rise in farmers' income and expansion of agricultural education, rather than in political rhetoric. Addressing a press conference at Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel University of Agriculture and Technology in Meerut, he said opposition leaders, including Rahul Gandhi and Mamata Banerjee, have often indulged in "report card politics" but the public has already witnessed the outcome of their governance and policies. "The BJP government's report card is visible in farmers' fields, increased agricultural production, the strengthening of agricultural education, and the improving economic condition of farmers," Shahi added. On a question regarding Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav's repeated release of report cards targeting the government, he said voters evaluate governments on the basis of development and good governance rather than political statements. The minister said people of the country have faith in Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, while the people of UP continue to trust chief minister Yogi Adityanath. htc...
