Uttar Pradesh Government Denied Landing Permission to Akhilesh Yadav’s Plane in Moradabad, Alleges Samajwadi Party

Moradabad, February 2: The Samajwadi Party on Thursday alleged that the Uttar Pradesh government has denied its chief Akhilesh Yadav permission to land his plane in Moradabad, while the district administration denied the charge, saying the landing was cancelled due to ongoing construction work.

“As per a pre-announced programme, national president Akhilesh Yadav was supposed to attend a function in Moradabad on February 4 but the Yogi Adityanath government is not allowing the plane to land,” the party said in a tweet. “This is a very condemnable act. The BJP’s arrogance will end soon!” it added. Akhilesh Yadav Slams Uttar Pradesh CM, Says ‘Yogi Adityanath Prevented Me from Flying to Allahabad’.

Samajwadi Party’s Tweet

पूर्व घोषित कार्यक्रम के तहत दिनांक 4 फरवरी 2023 को मा. राष्ट्रीय अध्यक्ष श्री अखिलेश यादव जी को मुरादाबाद में एक समारोह में सम्मिलित होना था लेकिन योगी सरकार प्लेन को लैंड होने की अनुमति नहीं दे रही है। यह बेहद निंदनीय कृत्य है।

When contacted, City Magistrate Jyoti Singh told PTI that due to the construction work currently underway on the airstrip, landing is not possible for any plane. According to the schedule, Yadav had to land at Mudha Pandey airstrip on Saturday.
