While joining the Samajwadi Party on Sunday, Chauhan trained his guns at the BJP, saying, “When the BJP formed government in Uttar Pradesh in 2017, it gave the slogan ‘sabka saath, sabka vikaas’… But, ‘vikaas’ (development) of a handful of people was done and the rest were left to their fate.”Terming the Samajwadi Party as his “old home”, he said, “We will change the politics of Uttar Pradesh, and make Akhilesh Yadav the chief minister of Uttar Pradesh once again.””People belonging to the OBC and Dalit communities will come together. Our rivals may try their level best but will not be able to stop this storm. A change is inevitable,” Chauhan said.In a jolt to the ruling BJP, Chauhan, who represents the Madhuban Assembly constituency in Mau district, had resigned from the Yogi Adityanath cabinet on Wednesday while alleging that the Dalits, the OBCs and the unemployed did not get justice from the BJP government.”It was the poor who had made the government but others took all the advantage in the past five years,” he alleged after resigning as the minister for forests and environment.
