BIG POLITICAL ROW: Posters Accuse SP Leaders of Promoting Power Theft in Uttar Pradesh

A political controversy has erupted in Lucknow after posters targeting Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav were put up, labelling him as an “electricity thief” and alleging that power theft was encouraged during the SP government’s rule. The posters also mentioned other SP leaders, including Azam Khan and MP B. E. S. Burk, linking them to cases related to electricity theft. The move triggered strong political backlash. Samajwadi Party workers reacted sharply by tearing and burning the controversial posters, calling them politically motivated and defamatory. The incident has further intensified the already heated political atmosphere in Uttar Pradesh. With the 2027 state assembly elections approaching, political parties are increasingly engaging in aggressive poster wars and public accusations. The controversy reflects rising tensions between rival parties, as issues of governance and past allegations are being actively used in political messaging and campaigning. The situation continues to escalate in the state’s political landscape.
