Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav on Saturday took potshots at the BJP government for taking credit for the Saryu Nahar National Project.
Akhilesh tweeted that the BJP government in Uttar Pradesh took five years to complete the remaining works of Saryu Nahar National Project which was three-fourths completed during the SP government.
He added that there are two types of people in the world, some who really work and some who appropriate others' work and that is the difference between the government of SP and today's 'ribbon cutting' government.

According to the Centre, the project was launched in 1978 but got delayed for four decades due to "lack of continuity of budgetary support, interdepartmental coordination and adequate monitoring".
