New Delhi: Claiming 'historic voting' for the SP-RLD candidates, Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Monday said the people have subdued the 'garmi' (haughtiness) of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath in the first two phases of the UP assembly elections.
Yadav took on Adityanath saying he used to claim ahead of the elections that 'khoon ki garmi' (haughtiness, enthusiasm) of the SP and RLD leaders would be subdued after the elections.
"After the first two phases, the people have pacified 'garmi' of those who were talking of curbing others' enthusiasm (garmi nikal denge) after the elections," Yadav said while addressing an election rally in the Bundelkhand region.

"Now after the third phase, the people of Bundelkhand will make him 'thanda' (cool down)," he said.
He addressed rallies in Jhansi, Hamirpur and Mahoba.
"In the first phase, there was historic voting in favour of the SP-RLD alliance candidates. The same is the situation in the second phase. The BJP only betrayed the people of Bundelkhand while the SP is there for them," he said.

Claiming that the BJP is heading toward defeat, Yadav said it was "evident from the changing language" and the "face of Baba CM, who could not sleep amid the imminent defeat".
Accusing the BJP leaders of telling lies to people, Yadav appealed to the voters to vote for the pre-poll SP-RLD alliance candidates without any discrimination on grounds of caste and religion.
